Research on the thermal ecology and physiology of free‐living organisms is accelerating as
scientists and managers recognize the urgency of the global biodiversity crisis brought on by …

Movement ecology is a field which places movement as a basis for understanding animal
behavior. To realize this concept, ecologists rely on data collection technologies providing …

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 …

Habitat loss poses a major threat to global biodiversity. Many studies have explored the
potential damages of deforestation to animal populations but few have considered trees as …

Bergmann's Rule predicts larger body sizes in colder habitats, increasing organisms' ability
to conserve heat. Originally formulated for endotherms, it is controversial whether …

Many organisms are shrinking in size in response to global warming. However, we still lack
a comprehensive understanding of the mechanisms linking body size and temperature of …

Although observations suggest the potential for phenotypic plasticity to allow adaptive
responses to climate change, few experiments have assessed that potential. Modeling …

Ectothermy in reptiles involves strong environmental temperature dependence to maintain
body temperature. High mountains are extreme habitats which, because of their marked …

An understanding of spatial and thermal factors, two fundamentally intertwined elements, is
essential to the health and welfare of captive reptiles; carers cannot address one without …

In the era of human-driven climate change, understanding whether behavioural buffering of
temperature change is linked with organismal fitness is essential. According to the 'cost …
