A core challenge in global change biology is to predict how species will respond to future
environmental change and to manage these responses. To make such predictions and …

Animals are facing novel 'timescapes' in which the stimuli entraining their daily activity
patterns no longer match historical conditions due to anthropogenic disturbance. However …

The frequency, duration, and intensity of extreme thermal events are increasing and are
projected to further increase by the end of the century,. Despite the considerable …

Insects around the world are rapidly declining. Concerns over what this loss means for food
security and ecological communities have compelled a growing number of researchers to …

The impacts of the changing climate on the biological world vary across latitudes, habitats
and spatial scales. By contrast, the time of day at which these changes are occurring has …

Mammals in drylands are facing not only increasing heat loads but also reduced water and
food availability as a result of climate change. Insufficient water results in suppression of …

Climate change and urbanisation are among the most pervasive and rapidly growing threats
to biodiversity worldwide. However, their impacts are usually considered in isolation, and …

Time is a fundamental component of ecological processes. How animal behavior changes
over time has been explored through well-known ecological theories like niche partitioning …

Increasing global light pollution 1, 2 threatens the night-time darkness to which most animals
are adapted. Light pollution can have detrimental effects on behavior, 3–5 including by …

An animal's daily use of time (their “diel activity”) reflects their adaptations, requirements,
and interactions, yet we know little about the underlying processes governing diel activity …
