Foraging patch selection in winter: a balance between predation risk and thermoregulation benefit. [PDF]
PLoS ONE, 2013 In winter, foraging activity is intended to optimize food search while minimizing both thermoregulation costs and predation risk. Here we quantify the relative importance of thermoregulation and predation in foraging patch selection of woodland birds ...

Dehydration constrains thermoregulation and space use in lizards.
PLoS ONE, 2019 Climate change is negatively affecting many species. The increase in mean air temperature is often associated with shifts in distribution, changes in phenology, and local extinctions. Other factors that only partially correlate with air temperature, like
