This article reviews the literature on the circadian rhythms of body temperature and whole-
organism metabolism. The two rhythms are first described separately, each description …

Most processes within organisms, and most interactions between organisms and their
environment, have distinct time profiles. The temporal coordination of such processes is …

The last 'hibernation book'was published in 1982, nearly 40 years ago, so clearly an update
was needed. The options were a book written by a single author or an edited book written by …

Circadian rhythms influence most of our life activities, notably getting up and going to sleep
every day. The new edition of this book delves into the mechanisms surrounding how these …

Worldwide habitat loss, land‐use changes, and climate change threaten biodiversity, and
we urgently need models that predict the combined impacts of these threats on organisms …

The mammalian circadian system synchronizes daily timing of activity and rest with the
environmental light–dark cycle. Although the underlying molecular oscillatory mechanism is …

Phenotypic differences among individuals can arise during any stage of life. Although
several distinct processes underlying individual differences have been defined and studied …

Use of artificial at night (ALAN) exposes the world to continuously increasing levels and
distribution of light pollution. Our understanding of the adverse effects of ALAN is based …

Heterothermy allows organisms to cope with fluctuating environmental conditions. The use
of regulated hypometabolism allows seasonal heterothermic species to cope with annual …

Hibernation and daily torpor (heterothermy) have long been assumed to be adaptive
responses to seasonal energy shortage. Laboratory studies have demonstrated that food …
