Biological impacts of marine heatwaves
Climatic extremes are becoming increasingly common against a background trend of global
warming. In the oceans, marine heatwaves (MHWs)—discrete periods of anomalously warm …

Adaptation to climate change through genetic accommodation and assimilation of plastic phenotypes
M Kelly - Philosophical Transactions of the Royal Society …, 2019 - royalsocietypublishing.org
Theory suggests that evolutionary changes in phenotypic plasticity could either hinder or
facilitate evolutionary rescue in a changing climate. Nevertheless, the actual role of evolving …

Evolutionary genomics can improve prediction of species' responses to climate change
Global climate change (GCC) increasingly threatens biodiversity through the loss of species,
and the transformation of entire ecosystems. Many species are challenged by the pace of …

The cellular stress response and temperature: Function, regulation, and evolution
GN Somero - Journal of Experimental Zoology Part A …, 2020 - Wiley Online Library
The cellular stress response (CSR) is critical for enabling organisms to cope with thermal

Seagrasses in an era of ocean warming: a review
Seagrasses are valuable sources of food and habitat for marine life and are one of Earth's
most efficient carbon sinks. However, they are facing a global decline due to ocean warming …

Limited plasticity in thermally tolerant ectotherm populations: evidence for a trade-off
Many species face extinction risks owing to climate change, and there is an urgent need to
identify which species' populations will be most vulnerable. Plasticity in heat tolerance …

Beyond thermal performance curves: modeling time-dependent effects of thermal stress on ectotherm growth rates
Thermal performance curves have been widely used to model the ecological responses of
ectotherms to variable thermal environments and climate change. Such models ignore the …

The importance of phenotypic plasticity and local adaptation in driving intraspecific variability in thermal niches of marine macrophytes
Climate change is driving the redistribution of species at a global scale and documenting
and predicting species' responses to warming is a principal focus of contemporary ecology …

Genetic constraints, transcriptome plasticity, and the evolutionary response to climate change
In situ adaptation to climate change will be critical for the persistence of many ectotherm
species due to their relative lack of dispersal capacity. Climate change is causing increases …
