Global change includes a substantial increase in the frequency and intensity of extreme high
temperatures (EHTs), which influence insects at almost all levels. The number of studies …

Wheat (Triticum aestivum L.) production is vital to global food security. Climate change is
threatening sustainable wheat production not only with direct negative effects on crop …

Climate change is not only causing steady increases in average global temperatures but
also increasing the frequency with which extreme heating events occur. These extreme …

Dominance hierarchy, the dominance ranking of members in a community, is determined by
the relative population fitness of coexisting species. Climate change can shift dominance …

Extreme heat in summer is frequent in parts of China, and this likely affects the fitness of the
beetle Ophraella communa, a biological control agent of invasive common ragweed. Here …

When thermal tolerances differ between interacting species, extreme temperature events
(heat waves) will alter the ecological outcomes. The parasitoid wasp Cotesia congregata …

California is a global leader in production and supply of walnuts and almonds, and the state
is the largest producer of peaches in the US These crops have an important contribution to …

Extreme high temperatures (EHTs) are predicted to increase in both amplitude and
frequency with future climate warming, and severely impact the fitness of beneficial species …

Temperature, being the main factor that has an influence on insects, causes changes in their
development, reproduction, winter survival, life cycles, migration timing, and population …

Climate warming is characterized by increase in extreme heat events (EHEs). EHEs and
mild temperature periods alternate with each other and form complex climate scenarios …
