While average temperature is likely to increase in most locations on Earth, many places will
simultaneously experience higher variability in temperature, precipitation, and other climate …

Species' responses to environmental changes such as global warming are affected not only
by trends in mean conditions, but also by natural and human‐induced environmental …

Increases in the frequency, severity and duration of temperature extremes are anticipated in
the near future. Although recent work suggests that changes in temperature variation will …

Ectotherms are considered to be particularly vulnerable to climate warming. Descriptions of
habitat temperatures and predicted changes in climate usually consider mean monthly …

It has been suggested that the ecological impact of crickets as a source of dietary protein is
less than conventional forms of livestock due to their comparatively efficient feed conversion …

Global climate change poses one of the greatest threats to biodiversity. Most analyses of the
potential biological impacts have focused on changes in mean temperature, but changes in …

Water temperatures fluctuate in time and space, creating diverse thermal regimes on river
networks. Temporal variability in these thermal landscapes has important biological and …

Climate change will not only shift environmental means but will also increase the intensity of
extreme events, exerting additional stress on ecosystems. While field observations on the …

Despite the amount of research on the consequences of global warming on ecological
systems, most studies examine the impact of increases in average temperature. However …

Increases in thermal variability elevate metabolic rate due to Jensen's inequality, and
increased metabolic rate decreases the fitness of dormant ectotherms by increasing …
