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 …

Climate change is a threat to marine turtles that is expected to affect all of their life stages. To
guide future research, we conducted a review of the most recent literature on this topic …

Early environments can profoundly influence an organism in ways that persist over its life. In
reptiles, early thermal environments (nest temperatures) can impact offspring phenotype and …

The rapid rate of current global climate change is having strong effects on many species
and, at least in some cases, is driving evolution, particularly when changes in conditions …

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 …

Species with large geographical ranges provide an excellent model for studying how
different populations respond to dissimilar local conditions, particularly with respect to …

Global climate is warming rapidly, threatening vertebrates with temperature-dependent sex
determination (TSD) by disrupting sex ratios and other traits. Less understood are the effects …

Anthropogenic global climate change has already led to alterations in biodiversity patterns
by directly and indirectly affecting species distributions. It has been suggested that …

Significant deviations between macro‐and microclimates are quite common in different
ecosystems. Such deviations have also been observed between leaf and air temperatures …

Phenological shifts, by initiating reproductive events earlier, in response to advanced
seasonal warming is one of the most striking effects currently observed in wild populations …
