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 …

Highlights•The timing of heat stress within host–parasitoid life cycles is critical.•Thermal
mismatch between hosts and parasitoids is common.•Heat tolerance of parasitoids can be …

Insects are critical to our ecosystems, but we do not fully understand their future in our
warming world. Rising temperatures are affecting insect physiology in myriad ways …

When thermal tolerances differ between interacting species, extreme temperature events
(heat waves) will alter the ecological outcomes. The parasitoid wasp Cotesia congregata …

The biocontrol agent Torymus sinensis Kamijo is considered as one of the most successful
examples of classical biological control programs. This parasitoid represented a feasible …

The construction industry is significantly influenced by various outdoor weather factors,
which affect the thermal comfort of workers and, subsequently their productivity and health …

Climate change alters many environmental parameters with strong consequences for
ecological interactions, from species interactions to community dynamics. Temperature is …

Low temperatures associated with winter can limit the survival of organisms, especially
ectotherms whose body temperature is similar to their environment. However, there is a gap …

In today's ever-evolving scientific landscape, invasion science faces a plethora of
challenges, such as terminological inconsistency and the rapidly growing literature corpus …

Highlights•Temperature affects directly life-history traits of parasitoids and indirectly
communities.•Longitudinal gradients are understudied but well correlated to winter …
