A multi‐trait evaluation of patterns and fitness consequences of breeding phenology plasticity with nocturnal warming and food restriction in a lizard

Functional Ecology, EarlyView.
Read the free Plain Language Summary for this article on the Journal blog. Abstract Faced with climate warming, ectothermic species shift their breeding phenology, which is in part attributed to an acceleration of gestation or incubation in warmer environments.

Climate explains global functional trait variation in bees

Functional Ecology, EarlyView.
Read the free Plain Language Summary for this article on the Journal blog. Abstract Climate is a fundamental driver of macroecological patterns in functional trait variation. However, many of the traits that have outsized effects on thermal performance are complex, multi‐dimensional, and challenging to quantify at scale.

Effects of age, density, and seasonality on molt pattern in the mammal genus (Peromyscus) [PDF]

, 2015
Molting, or replacement of pelage (hair) in mammals, occurs during ontogeny as individuals transition from juveniles to adults. Environmental factors can cause variation in molt in many species for thermoregulatory and camouflage purposes.

Crossing thermal boundaries: Quantifying the impact of sublethal heat stress on growth in black soldier fly (Hermetia illucens)

Functional Ecology, EarlyView.
Read the free Plain Language Summary for this article on the Journal blog. Abstract Ectothermic responses to permissive temperatures that support growth, maintenance and repair are typically modelled by thermal performance curves (TPC). In contrast, thermal death time (TDT) models are well suited to describe the potent, exponential accumulation of ...

A mathematical model for thermoregulation in endotherms including heat transport by blood flow and thermal feedback control mechanisms: changes in coat, metabolic rate, blood fluxes, ventilation and sweating rates

Letters in Biomathematics, 2018
Thermoregulation in endotherms allows the maintenance of the body temperature independent of ambient temperature. Experimental data have revealed complex interactions between the physiological mechanisms of thermoregulation and environmental conditions ...

Influence of temperature on host location and multisensory orientation in the parasitoid Pimpla turionellae (L.) (Hymenoptera) [PDF]

, 2008
The ichneumonid wasp Pimpla turionellae (L.) (Hymenoptera) is a specialist parasitoid of lepidopteran pupae, and has to overcome the challenge of reduced chemical and visual cues as pupae are immobile, do not feed and do not emit excrements.

Global patterns of colouration complexity in the Paridae: Effects of climate and species characteristics across body regions

Journal of Animal Ecology, EarlyView.
Variation in colour complexity in the Paridae is linked to climate, climate variability and several biotic factors. The strength of the associations is patch specific. Variables related to resource competition are more strongly associated with colour complexity of the head and breast than with that of the back and wing.
