Climate warming is considered to be among the most serious of anthropogenic stresses to
the environment, because it not only has direct effects on biodiversity, but it also exacerbates …

Climate change is now estimated by some biologists to be the main threat to biodiversity, but
doubts persist regarding which species are most at risk, and how best to adapt conservation …

Extreme climate events are predicted to increase in the future, which will have significant
effects on insect biodiversity. Research into this area has been rapidly expanding, but …

Global average surface temperature has increased by around 0.6 ºC during the past century,
with the 1990s being the warmest decade. Temperature changes vary geographically …

Climate change affects the pattern of population dynamics of insects in different ways.
Global warming not only leads to greater over-winter survival, earlier appearance in spring …

Insects, being poikilothermic, are among the organisms that are most likely to respond to
changes in climate, particularly increased temperatures. Range expansions into new areas …

Climate exerts powerful effects on the distribution and abundance of the earth's insect
species, and we should expect climate warming to generate changes for many insect …

To understand how researchers are tackling globally important issues, it is crucial to identify
whether current research is comprehensive enough to make substantive predictions about …

Although it is well known that insects are sensitive to temperature, how they will be affected
by ongoing global warming remains uncertain because these responses are multifaceted …

This review examines the direct effects of climate change on insect herbivores. Temperature
is identified as the dominant abiotic factor directly affecting herbivorous insects. There is little …
