Adaptive plasticity in avian thermal physiology is increasingly apparent, with a well-studied
example being metabolic upregulation during cold winters in small birds inhabiting …

Endotherms dissipate heat to the environment to maintain a stable body temperature at high
ambient temperatures, which requires them to maintain a balance between heat dissipation …

Small birds inhabiting northern temperate and boreal latitudes typically increase metabolic
rates during cold winters or acclimation to low air temperatures (T accl). Recent studies …

Intraspecific variation in animal energy and water balances may play an important role in
local adaptation of populations to specific habitats such as deserts. We examined Kuhl's …

El escenario de cambio climático predice una disminución en las precipitaciones y un
aumento en las olas de calor, lo que provocaría que muchas aves del clima mediterráneo …
