Unexpected consequences of a drier world: evidence that delay in late summer rains biases the population sex ratio of an insect [PDF]

Royal Society Open Science, 2015
The complexity of animal life histories makes it difficult to predict the consequences of climate change on their populations. In this paper, we show, for the first time, that longer summer drought episodes, such as those predicted for the dry ...
