Since the early 1990s, ecologists and evolutionary biologists have aggregated primary
research using meta‐analytic methods to understand ecological and evolutionary …

Understanding the factors affecting thermal tolerance is crucial for predicting the impact
climate change will have on ectotherms. However, the role developmental plasticity plays in …

Although meta-analysis has become an essential tool in ecology and evolution, reporting of
meta-analytic results can still be much improved. To aid this, we have introduced the orchard …

Animal behaviour can lead to varying levels of risk, and an individual's physical condition
can alter the potential costs and benefits of undertaking risky behaviours. How risk‐taking …

Animal communication is central to many animal societies, and effective signal transmission
is crucial for individuals to survive and reproduce successfully. One environmental factor that …

Climate change, along with environmental pollution, can act synergistically on an organism
to amplify adverse effects of exposure. The Arctic is undergoing profound climatic change …

Finding the optimal balance between survival and reproduction is a central puzzle in life-
history theory. The terminal investment hypothesis predicts that when individuals encounter …

Otolith shape analysis has been extensively employed to distinguish stocks and populations
of marine fish species. While the majority of studies have employed Elliptic Fourier …

During the last decades, there has been a growing interest in the Atlantic chub mackerel,
Scomber colias, owing to its northward expansion across the East Atlantic Ocean. This trend …

Fish cholinesterases (ChEs)–like acetylcholinesterase (AChE) and butyrylcholinesterase
(BChE)–are common biomarkers of environmental contamination due to their sensitivity to a …
