Phenotypic plasticity and genetic adaptation are predicted to mitigate some of the negative
biotic consequences of climate change. Here, we evaluate evidence for plastic and …

Nest building is a taxonomically widespread and diverse trait that allows animals to alter
local environments to create optimal conditions for offspring development. However, there is …

Species with large geographical ranges provide an excellent model for studying how
different populations respond to dissimilar local conditions, particularly with respect to …

A range of abiotic parameters within a reptile nest influence the viability and attributes
(including sex, behaviour and body size) of hatchlings that emerge from that nest. As a result …

Adaptations of post‐hatching animals have attracted far more study than have embryonic
responses to environmental challenges, but recent research suggests that we have …

Climate change and land‐use change are leading drivers of biodiversity decline, affecting
demographic parameters that are important for population persistence. For example …

Phenological shifts, by initiating reproductive events earlier, in response to advanced
seasonal warming is one of the most striking effects currently observed in wild populations …

Climate change threatens species with temperature-dependent sex determination as further
warming could result in extremely biased sex ratios or offspring of only one sex. Among the …

There is a growing recognition of the role of individual variation in patterns emerging at
higher levels of biological organization. Despite the importance of the temporal configuration …

Climate change poses a threat to species with temperature-dependent sex determination
(TSD). A recent study on green sea turtles (Chelonia mydas) at the northern Great Barrier …
