Organisms in natural environments experience diel temperature fluctuations, including
sporadic extreme conditions, rather than constant temperatures. Studies based mainly on …

Developmental stressors are increasingly recognised for their pervasive influence on the
ecology and evolution of animals. In particular, many studies have focused on how …

A major challenge in ecology and evolution is to disentangle the mechanisms driving broad-
scale variation in biological traits such as body size, colour, thermal physiology traits and …

Global warming is having impacts across the Tree of Life. Understanding species'
physiological sensitivity to temperature change and how they relate to local temperature …

Rising global temperatures are predicted to impact organisms in diverse ways. For
ectotherms, recent broad‐scale analyses have predicted global patterns of vulnerability to …

Oxygen supply to the heart has been hypothesized to limit cardiac performance and whole
animal acute thermal tolerance (CTmax) in fish. We tested these hypotheses by continuously …

Physiological thermal limits often reflect species distribution, but the role that ambient
temperature (T a) plays in limiting species within their thermal environment remains unclear …

Tropical ectothermic species are currently depicted as more vulnerable to increasing
temperatures because of the proximity between their upper thermal limits and environmental …

Species distribution models (SDMs) largely rely on free-air temperatures at coarse spatial
resolutions to predict habitat suitability, potentially overlooking important microhabitat …

In recent decades, changes in climate have caused impacts on natural and human systems
on all continents and across the oceans and many species have shifted their geographic …
