Species persistence in the Anthropocene is dramatically threatened by global climate
change. Large emissions of carbon dioxide (CO 2) from human activities are driving …

Organisms living in seasonal environments often adjust physiological capacities and
sensitivities in response to (or in anticipation of) environment shifts. Such physiological and …

Determining the resilience of a species or population to climate change stressors is an
important but difficult task because resilience can be affected both by genetically based …

Physiology can underlie movement, including short-term activity, exploration of unfamiliar
environments, and larger scale dispersal, and thereby influence species distributions in an …

Energy metabolism is a fundamental property of life providing the energy for all processes
and functions within an organism. As it is temperature-dependent, it mediates the effects of …

Understanding the fitness consequences of thermal history is necessary to predict
organismal responses to global warming. This is especially challenging for ectotherms with …

This review serves as an introduction to a special issue of Frontiers in Physiology, focused
on the importance of physiological performance curves across phylogenetic and functional …

Although pervasive, the effects of climate change vary regionally, possibly resulting in
differential behavioral, physiological, and/or phenotypic responses among populations …

Being the world's largest seafood producer, China's mariculture is critical for ensuring
national and global food security, yet greatly threatened by climate change. It is essential to …

Social behaviours can allow individuals to flexibly respond to environmental change,
potentially buffering adverse effects. However, individuals may respond differently to the …
