All life forms across the globe are experiencing drastic changes in environmental conditions
as a result of global climate change. These environmental changes are happening rapidly …

Selective breeding of resilient organisms is an emerging topic in marine conservation. It can
help us predict how species will adapt in the future and how we can help restore struggling …

Forecasting long‐term consequences of global warming requires knowledge on thermal
mortality and how heat stress interacts with other environmental stressors on different …

Rising temperatures represent a significant threat to the survival of ectothermic animals. As
such, upper thermal limits represent an important trait to assess the vulnerability of …

Although meta-analysis has become an essential tool in ecology and evolution, reporting of
meta-analytic results can still be much improved. To aid this, we have introduced the orchard …

An individual's fitness cost associated with environmental change likely depends on the rate
of adaptive phenotypic plasticity, and yet our understanding of plasticity rates in an …

Improving the efficacy and overcoming the malfunctions of systems are significant
challenges. Variability characterizes all levels of complex biological systems. We reviewed …

Environmental challenges early in development can result in complex phenotypic trade-offs
and long-term effects on individual physiology, performance and behavior, with implications …

Exposure to extreme temperatures can negatively affect animal reproduction, by disrupting
the ability of individuals to produce any offspring (fertility), or the number of offspring …

Mounting evidence suggests that ectotherms are already living close to their upper
physiological thermal limits. Phenotypic plasticity has been proposed to reduce the impact of …
