Climate change is leading to shifts in species geographical distributions, but populations are
also probably adapting to environmental change at different rates across their range. Owing …

The physical and ecological 'fingerprints' of anthropogenic climate change over the past
century are now well documented in many environments and taxa. We reviewed the …

Ongoing climate change is predicted to affect individual organisms during all life stages,
thereby affecting populations of a species, communities and the functioning of ecosystems …

Predicting the impacts of climate change on species is one of the biggest challenges that
ecologists face. Predictions routinely focus on the direct effects of climate change on …

Temperature tolerance is critical for defining the fundamental niche of ectotherms and
researchers classically use either static (exposure to a constant temperature) or dynamic …

Thermal performance curves (TPCs) describe the effects of temperature on biological rate
processes. Here, we use examples from our work on common killifish (Fundulus …

The ecology of mosquito vectors and malaria parasites affect the incidence, seasonal
transmission and geographical range of malaria. Most malaria models to date assume …

To understand the effects of temperature on biological systems, we compile, organize, and
analyze a database of 1,072 thermal responses for microbes, plants, and animals. The …

The concept of oxygen-and capacity-dependent thermal tolerance in aquatic ectotherms has
successfully explained climate-induced effects of rising temperatures on species abundance …

Marine phytoplankton generate half of global primary production, making them essential to
ecosystem functioning and biogeochemical cycling. Though phytoplankton are …
