Temperature profoundly impacts both the phenotypes and distributions of organisms. These
thermal effects exert strong selective pressures on behaviour, physiology and life history …

Countergradient variation is a geographical pattern of genotypes (with respect to
environments) in which genetic influences on a trait oppose environmental influences …

Oogenesis in fishes follows a universal plan; yet, due to differences in the synchrony and
rate of egg development, spawning frequency varies from daily to once in a lifetime. Some …

Compensatory growth (CG) is a phase of accelerated growth when favourable conditions
are restored after a period of growth depression. CG reduces variance in size by causing …

Reproductive Biology of Teleost Fishes is the first integrated review of the reproductive
biology of the bony fishes, which are the most species-rich and diversified group of …

The role of seasonality is indisputable in climate and ecosystem dynamics. Seasonal
temperature and precipitation variability are of vital importance for the availability of food …

Winter mortality has been documented in a large number of freshwater fish populations, and
a smaller, but increasing, number of marine and estuarine fishes. The impacted populations …

Correlations between the amount of energy received by an assemblage and the number of
species that it contains are very general, and at the macro-scale such species–energy …

Patterns of phenotypic change across environmental gradients (eg, latitude, altitude) have
long captivated the interest of evolutionary ecologists. The pattern and magnitude of …

The timing of recurring biological and seasonal environmental events is changing on a
global scale relative to temperature and other climate drivers. This study considers the Gulf …
