Ectothermic animals, such as amphibians and reptiles, are particularly sensitive to rapidly
warming global temperatures. One response in these organisms may be to evolve aspects …

Phenotypic plasticity and genetic adaptation are predicted to mitigate some of the negative
biotic consequences of climate change. Here, we evaluate evidence for plastic and …

The pervasive and unabated nature of global amphibian declines suggests common
demographic responses to a given driver, and quantification of major drivers and responses …

For many organisms, constraints on activity increase energetic costs, which ultimately
reduce the suitability of a particular habitat. Mechanistic species distribution models often …

When environmental variation is spatially continuous, dispersing individuals move among
nearby sites with similar habitat conditions. But as an environmental gradient becomes …

Both environmental and genetic influences can result in phenotypic variation. Quantifying
the relative contributions of local adaptation and phenotypic plasticity to phenotypes is key to …

Although temperature variation is known to cause large-scale adaptive divergence, its
potential role as a selective factor over microgeographic scales is less well-understood …

Background Past events like fluctuations in population size and post-glacial colonization
processes may influence the relative importance of genetic drift, migration and selection …

Climatic changes and their impact on animals and plants at the margins of their distributions
are evident in terrestrial, limnic, and marine environments. I review and summarise the …

Frogs have developed biochemical and physiological adaptations to occupy diverse
ecological niches on Earth successfully. Survival in frozen states is a fascinating strategy …
