The microplastic body burden of marine animals is often assumed to reflect levels of
environmental contamination, yet variations in feeding ecology and regional trait expression …

The value of assisted colonisation as a response to climate change can only be realised if
focal species are well suited to their new habitats. For ectotherms, new habitats must offer …

Climate change is known to affect the distribution and composition of species, but
concomitant alterations to functionally important aspects of behaviour and species …

The proliferation of coastal infrastructure in the context of coastal development, urbanization,
and global change is inevitably related to the transformation of coastal community structure …

The field of sclerochronology has long been known to paleobiologists. Yet, despite the
central role of growth rate, age, and body size in questions related to macroevolution and …

Rising global temperatures are often identified as the key driver impacting ecosystems and
the services they provide by affecting biodiversity structure and function. A disproportionate …

As the climate continues to change, it is not just the magnitude of these changes that is
important–equally critical is the timing of these events. Conditions that may be well tolerated …

Unprecedented and dramatic transformations are occurring in the Arctic in response to
climate change, but academic, public, and political discourse has disproportionately …

Individual metabolism generally scales with body mass with an exponent around 3/4. From
dimensional arguments it follows that maximum population growth rate (r max) scales with …

The embryonic development of marine ectotherms has been shown to be strongly
temperature dependent across the world's oceans. However, at the coldest sites, in the polar …
