Phenotypic plasticity can allow organisms to cope with environmental changes. Although
reaction norms are commonly used to quantify plasticity along gradients of environmental …

The relevance of considering environmental variability for understanding and predicting
biological responses to environmental changes has resulted in a recent surge in variability …

With rapid and less predictable environmental change emerging as the 'new norm',
understanding how individuals tolerate environmental stress via plastic, often reversible …

Thermal variability is a key driver of ecological processes, affecting organisms and
populations across multiple temporal scales. Despite the ubiquity of variation, biologists lack …

The response of microalgae to environmental variation affects commercial scale production
of algal feedstocks. Regionally-resolved predictive models of biomass productivity use …

Climate change increases the need to understand the effect of predicted future temperature
and nutrient scenarios on marine phytoplankton. However, experimental studies addressing …

Light fluctuations are ubiquitous, exist across multiple spatial and temporal scales, and
directly affect the physiology and ecology of photoautotrophs. However, the indirect effects of …

Despite their relatively high thermal optima (T opt), tropical taxa may be particularly
vulnerable to a rising baseline and increased temperature variation because they live in …

Environmental tolerance curves, representing absolute fitness against the environment, are
an empirical assessment of the fundamental niche, and emerge from the phenotypic …

Little is known on how karst plants adapt to highly heterogeneous habitats via adjusting leaf
anatomical structures. Phyllostachys glauca McClure is a dominant species that grow across …
