Temperature affects the rate of all biochemical processes in ectotherms, and is therefore
critical for determining their current and future distribution under global climate change …

Understanding which species and ecosystems will be most severely affected by warming as
climate change advances is important for guiding conservation and management. Both …

Global warming is increasing mean temperatures and altering temperature variability at
multiple temporal scales. To better understand the consequences of changes in thermal …

The frequency, duration, and intensity of extreme thermal events are increasing and are
projected to further increase by the end of the century,. Despite the considerable …

Understanding how species' thermal limits have evolved across the tree of life is central to
predicting species' responses to climate change. Here, using experimentally-derived …

Global warming is increasing the overheating risk for many organisms, though the potential
for plasticity in thermal tolerance to mitigate this risk is largely unknown. In part, this …

Ectotherms from higher latitudes can generally perform over broader temperature ranges
than tropical ectotherms. This pattern is thought to reflect trends in temperature variability …

Recent studies suggest that animals are decreasing in size as a general response to global
warming, for reasons that remain unclear. Here, by analysing ectotherm death time curves …

Plasticity is a near‐ubiquitous feature of the thermal physiology of ectothermic organisms.
Understanding the significance of plasticity in evolutionary and ecological contexts requires …

Thermal performance curves have been widely used to model the ecological responses of
ectotherms to variable thermal environments and climate change. Such models ignore the …
