The high intertidal zone is home to an incredible variety of marine animals, as it offers an
escape from low intertidal/subtidal predation and competition, among other advantages …

Whether global latitudinal diversity gradients exist in rocky intertidal α-diversity and across
functional groups remains unknown. Using literature data from 433 intertidal sites, we …

Determining the saline niche of the congeneric and co‐existing species that inhabit
supralittoral rockpools subjected to extremely fluctuating saline conditions is a crucial …

Freezing is an extreme stress to living cells, and so freeze-tolerant animals often accumulate
protective molecules (termed cryoprotectants) to prevent the cellular damage caused by …

Salinity drops in estuaries after heavy rains are expected to increase in frequency and
intensity over the next decades, with physiological and ecological consequences for the …

Molluscs live in diverse habitats, but the physiological mechanisms enabling their winter
survival in temperate and polar environments remain poorly understood. Here I investigated …

The horizontal distribution of Mictyris guinotae was studied in relation to gradients of salinity
and sediment characteristics in sandy flats between 0 and 8.2 km from the mouth of a …

To better predict the responses of ecological systems to climate change we must better
understand how interactions between multiple stressors alter organismal function, how …

Background In June of 2021, the Pacific Coast of Vancouver, British Columbia (BC)
experienced a recordbreaking heat dome event, resulting in the death of over one billion …

With climate change, we are seeing an increase in mean temperatures globally. Perhaps of
greater concern, however, is the associated increase in the frequency, magnitude, and …
