Animal personality traits such as boldness, activity and aggressiveness have been
described for many animal species. However, why some individuals are consistently bolder …

Climate change is a threat to marine turtles that is expected to affect all of their life stages. To
guide future research, we conducted a review of the most recent literature on this topic …

Marine turtles occupy a wide range of terrestrial and marine habitats, and many aspects of
their life history have been demonstrated to be closely tied to climatic variables such as …

Early environments can profoundly influence an organism in ways that persist over its life. In
reptiles, early thermal environments (nest temperatures) can impact offspring phenotype and …

Incubation is a vital component of reproduction and parental care in birds. Maintaining
temperatures within a narrow range is necessary for embryonic development and hatching …

Phenotypic plasticity and genetic adaptation are predicted to mitigate some of the negative
biotic consequences of climate change. Here, we evaluate evidence for plastic and …

Since the 1980s it has been known that incubation temperature influences the sex ratio of
sea turtle hatchlings emerging from their nests, and there has been much speculation on …

Recently, there has been a surge in cognition research using non‐avian reptile systems. As
