High thermal variation in maximum temperatures invert Brett's heat‐invariant rule at fine spatial scales Open
Discovering how species' thermal limits evolve and vary spatially is crucial for predicting their vulnerability to ongoing environmental warming. Current evidence indicates that heat tolerance is less spatially variable than cold tolerance…

Does heat tolerance actually predict animals' geographic thermal limits? Open
Global studies of organismal distribution and climatic vulnerability rely on the mostly untested assumption that heat tolerance restricts the maximum temperatures estimated at the warm edges of their geographic distribution (Tmax). Herein …

Phenology and plasticity can prevent adaptive clines in thermal tolerance across temperate mountains: The importance of the elevation‐time axis Open
Critical thermal limits (CT max and CT min ) decrease with elevation, with greater change in CT min , and the risk to suffer heat and cold stress increasing at the gradient ends. A central prediction is that populations will adapt to the p…

Upper thermal tolerances and vulnerability to global warming in a Brazilian Caatinga <span>fish</span><i>Astyanax bimaculatus</i> (Linnaeus, 1758) population Open
Global warming is predicted to increase both average temperatures and the frequency and duration of heat waves. Tropical ectotherms, particularly those living in warm environments are more prone to receive heat impacts. Then, it is crucial…

Elevational and local climate variability predicts thermal breadth of mountain tropical tadpoles Open
The climate variability hypothesis posits that increased environmental thermal variation should select for thermal generalists, while stable environments should favor thermal specialists. This hypothesis has been tested on large spatial sc…

The timing of thermal acclimation and its adaptive role to face heat impacts. An examination in tropical tadpoles Open
Phenotypic plasticity of the upper critical thermal limits (CTmax) may be crucial for ectotherms when it enables them to respond rapidly to extreme and novel thermal conditions. Although current studies have widely reported on the effect o…

Does heat tolerance actually predict animals’ geographic thermal limits? Open
To understand species′ climatic vulnerability, our measures of species’ thermal tolerance should predict their geographic thermal limits. Yet, this assumption is ungranted. We tested if animals′ heat tolerance restrict the warmest temperat…

Can age and growth patterns explain the geographical variation in the body size of two toad species? Open
Determining both the age structure and growth pattern allows to establish the causal factors, environmental and/or genetic, that eventually may be responsible for the observed pattern of divergence. We examined the variation in age structu…

The roles of acclimation and behaviour in buffering climate change impacts along elevational gradients Open
The vulnerability of species to climate change is jointly influenced by geographic phenotypic variation, acclimation and behavioural thermoregulation. The importance of interactions between these factors, however, remains poorly understood…
