Climate warming is considered to be among the most serious of anthropogenic stresses to
the environment, because it not only has direct effects on biodiversity, but it also exacerbates …

Body size is central to ecology at levels ranging from organismal fecundity to the functioning
of communities and ecosystems. Understanding temperature‐induced variations in body …

Employing the clear, student-friendly style that made previous editions so popular, Insect
Physiology and Biochemistry, Fourth Edition presents an engaging and authoritative guide …

Aquatic species represent a vast diversity of metazoans, provide humans with the most
abundant animal protein source, and are of increasing conservation concern, yet landscape …

Aerobic metabolism generates 15–20 times more energy (ATP) than anaerobic metabolism,
which is crucial in maintaining energy budgets in animals, fueling metabolism, activity …

Many mass extinctions of life in the sea and on land have been attributed to geologically
rapid heating, and in the case of the Permian–Triassic and others, driven by large igneous …

Climate change is altering conditions in high‐elevation streams worldwide, with largely
unknown effects on resident communities of aquatic insects. Here, we review the challenges …

Forecasting long‐term consequences of global warming requires knowledge on thermal
mortality and how heat stress interacts with other environmental stressors on different …

Temperature has a dramatic effect on the physiology of ectothermic animals, impacting most
of their biology. When temperatures increase above optimal for an animal, their growth …

Insects have distinct life stages that can differ in their responses to environmental factors. We
discuss empirical evidence and theoretical models for ontogenetic variation in thermal …
