Surviving changing climate conditions is particularly difficult for organisms such as insects
that depend on environmental temperature to regulate their physiological functions. Insects …

Observations of climate impacts on ecosystems highlight the need for an understanding of
organismal thermal ranges and their implications at the ecosystem level. Where changes in …

The temporal link between large igneous province (LIP) eruptions and at least half of the
major extinctions of the Phanerozoic implies that large scale volcanism is the main driver of …

Energy balance is a fundamental requirement of stress adaptation and tolerance. We
explore the links between metabolism, energy balance and stress tolerance using aquatic …

Integrating the effects of multiple stressors and predicting their consequences for the
species' survival and distribution is an important problem in ecological physiology. This …

The concept of oxygen-and capacity-dependent thermal tolerance in aquatic ectotherms has
successfully explained climate-induced effects of rising temperatures on species abundance …

A cause-and-effect understanding of climate influences on ecosystems requires evaluation
of thermal limits of member species and of their ability to cope with changing temperatures …

Over the past decade, accelerating rates of species extinction have prompted an increasing
number of studies to reduce species diversity experimentally and examine how this alters …

Over the last decade, numerous studies have investigated the role of oxygen in setting
thermal tolerance in aquatic animals, and there has been particular focus on arthropods …

The physiological mechanisms limiting and adjusting cold and heat tolerance have regained
interest in the light of global warming and associated shifts in the geographical distribution of …
