Revisiting concepts of thermal physiology: predicting responses of mammals to climate change
The accuracy of predictive models (also known as mechanistic or causal models) of animal
responses to climate change depends on properly incorporating the principles of heat …

How dryland mammals will respond to climate change: the effects of body size, heat load and a lack of food and water
Mammals in drylands are facing not only increasing heat loads but also reduced water and
food availability as a result of climate change. Insufficient water results in suppression of …

Mammalian body size is determined by interactions between climate, urbanization, and ecological traits
Anthropogenically-driven climate warming is a hypothesized driver of animal body size
reductions. Less understood are effects of other human-caused disturbances on body size …

Modeling climate change impacts on the distribution of an endangered brown bear population in its critical habitat in Iran
Climate change is one of the major challenges to the current conservation of biodiversity.

Large herbivore assemblages in a changing climate: incorporating water dependence and thermoregulation
The coexistence of different species of large herbivores (ungulates) in grasslands and
savannas has fascinated ecologists for decades. However, changes in climate, land‐use …

Predation risk constrains herbivores' adaptive capacity to warming
Global warming compels larger endothermic animals to adapt either physiologically or
behaviourally to avoid thermal stress, especially in tropical ecosystems. Their adaptive …
