Thermal variation, thermal extremes and the physiological performance of individuals
In this review we consider how small-scale temporal and spatial variation in body
temperature, and biochemical/physiological variation among individuals, affect the …

Decreased thermal tolerance under recurrent heat stress conditions explains summer mass mortality of the blue mussel Mytilus edulis
Extreme events such as heat waves have increased in frequency and duration over the last
decades. Under future climate scenarios, these discrete climatic events are expected to …

Spreading the risk: small-scale body temperature variation among intertidal organisms and its implications for species persistence
The intertidal zone of wave-swept rocky shores is a potentially useful system in which to
monitor, experimentally manipulate, and possibly forecast the ecological consequences of …

Geographic variation in temperature tolerance as an indicator of potential population responses to climate change
The temperature tolerances of individuals in geographically separated populations of a
single species can be used as indicators of each population's potential to persist or become …

On the prediction of extreme ecological events
Ecological studies often focus on average effects of environmental factors, but ecological
dynamics may depend as much upon environmental extremes. Ecology would therefore …

Thermal adaptation in the intertidal snail Echinolittorina malaccana contradicts current theory by revealing the crucial roles of resting metabolism
Contemporary theory for thermal adaptation of ectothermic metazoans focuses on the
maximization of energy gain and performance (locomotion and foraging). Little …
