Temperature has dramatic evolutionary fitness consequences and is therefore a major factor
determining the geographic distribution and abundance of ectotherms. However, the role …

We integrated the evidence for evolutionary and plastic trait changes in situ in response to
climate change in freshwater invertebrates (aquatic insects and zooplankton). The synthesis …

The primary nonbiological result of recent rapid climate change is warming winter
temperatures, particularly at northern latitudes, leading to longer growing seasons and new …

Understanding how communities respond to changes in temperature is a major challenge
for community ecology. Temperature influences the relative degree to which top‐down and …

Recent syntheses indicate that global warming affects diverse biological processes, but also
highlight the potential for some species to adapt behaviourally or evolutionarily to rapid …

How mosquitoes may respond to rapid climate warming remains unknown for most species,
but will have major consequences for their future distributions, with cascading impacts on …

In temperate climates, the recurring seasonal exigencies of winter represent a fundamental
physiological challenge for a wide range of organisms. In response, many temperate insects …

Climate change affects the pattern of population dynamics of insects in different ways.
Global warming not only leads to greater over-winter survival, earlier appearance in spring …

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

The chronic effects of exposure of Culex restuans (Theobald) and Aedes albopictus
(Skuse)(Diptera: Culicidae) to low concentrations of malathion were examined by exposing …
