Sub-Antarctic freshwater invertebrate thermal tolerances: an assessment of critical thermal limits and behavioral responses
(MDPI, 2020)
Physiological thermal limits of organisms are linked to their geographic distribution. The assessment of such limits can provide valuable insights when monitoring for environmental thermal alterations. Using the dynamic ...
Beyond a single temperature threshold: applying a cumulative thermal stress framework to plant heat tolerance
(2023)
Most plant thermal tolerance studies focus on single critical thresholds, which are arbitrary and phenomenological, limiting the generality of findings across studies. In animals and microbes, thermal tolerance landscapes ...
Tolerance landscapes in thermal ecology
(Blackwell Publishing Ltd, 2014)
Summary: How thermal tolerance estimated in the laboratory can be extrapolated to natural settings remains a contentious subject. Here, we argue that the general premise that a single temperature can accurately describe ...
Vulnerability to climate warming and acclimation capacity of tropicaland temperate coastal organisms
(2015-11)
tEcological forecasting on the likely impacts of climate warming is crucial at a time when several ecosys-tems seem to be responding to this environmental threat. Among the most important questions are:which are the most ...
Sublethal concentrations of chlorpyrifos induce changes in the thermal sensitivity and tolerance of anuran tadpoles in the toad Rhinella arenarum?
(Pergamon-Elsevier Science Ltd, 2019-03)
Amphibians are considered one of the groups most susceptible to chemical contamination, therefore are good bio-indicators of aquatic pollution. Synergistic effects of temperature and pesticides have been found in amphibians ...
Ocean warming and acidification pose synergistic limits to the thermal niche of an economically important echinoderm
(Elsevier Science, 2019-11)
To make robust projectios of the impacts of climate change, it is critical to understand how abiotic factors may interact to constrain the distribution and productivity of marine flora and fauna. We evaluated the effects ...
Thermal preference, critical thermal limits, oxygen routine consumption and active metabolic scope of Macrobrachium tenellum (Smith, 1871) maintained at different acclimation temperaturesThermal preference, critical thermal limits, oxygen routine consumption and active metabolic scope of Macrobrachium tenellum (Smith, 1871) maintained at different acclimation temperatures

Trading heat and hops for water: Dehydration effects on locomotor performance, thermal limits, and thermoregulatory behavior of a terrestrial toad
(Wiley-Blackwell, 2017-11-01)
Due to their highly permeable skin and ectothermy, terrestrial amphibians are challenged by compromises between water balance and body temperature regulation. The way in which such compromises are accommodated, under a ...
Thermal response of demersal and pelagic juvenile fishes from the surf zone during a heat-wave simulation
(2019-12-01)
Experimental measurements were collected in the laboratory to evaluate the maximum thermal limit and thermal plasticity of Neotropical juvenile fish with different life habitats (demersal and pelagic) from surf zone in ...
Thermal tolerance and aerobic scope of tetra-hybrid tilapia Pargo-UNAM
