Thermal performance curves (TPCs) provide a powerful framework to assess the evolution
of thermal sensitivity in populations exposed to divergent selection regimes across latitude …

Future climate change is leading to the redistribution of life on Earth as species struggle to
cope with rising temperatures. Local adaptation allows species to become locally optimized …

Physiological processes influence how individuals perform in various environmental
contexts. The basis of such processes, metabolism, scales allometrically with body mass …

Aim Understanding and predicting the biological consequences of climate change requires
considering the thermal sensitivity of organisms relative to environmental temperatures. One …

As climate change is expected to impose increasing thermal stress on intertidal organisms,
understanding the mechanisms by which body temperatures translate into major …

The temperature tolerances of individuals in geographically separated populations of a
single species can be used as indicators of each population's potential to persist or become …

Thermal stress is a potentially important selective agent in intertidal marine habitats, but the
role that thermal tolerance might play in local adaptation across shore height has been …

A quantitative understanding of physiological thermal responses is vital for forecasting
species distributional shifts in response to climate change. Many studies have focused on …

Our understanding of the plastic and evolutionary potential of ectothermic organisms and
their populational impacts in the face of rapid global change remains limited. Studies …

As the air temperature of the Earth rises, ecological relationships within a community might
shift, in part due to differences in the thermal physiology of species. Prediction of these shifts …
