Physiological responses of habitat‐forming seaweeds to increasing temperatures (2016, background): “Persistence usually depends on the temperature regimes an organism can physiologically tolerate (Osovitz and Hofmann 2007; Somero 2010).”
Thermal variability alters climatic stress resistance and plastic responses in a globally invasive pest, the Mediterranean fruit fly (Ceratitis capitata) (2010, background): “However, it is expected that variances and extremes of weather may also change under future scenarios (Easterling et al., 2000; Tebaldi et al., 2006; Tebaldi & Sanso, 2009) which are predicted to impact ectotherm fitness significantly (Helmuth, 2009; Hoffmann, 2010; Somero, 2010).”
Behavioral thermoregulation in a tropical gastropod: links to climate change scenarios (2011, background): “Midday low tides were chosen as they pose the most severe episodes of thermal stress which select for heat tolerance (Somero, 2010).”

Mechanisms of Thermal Tolerance in Reef-Building Corals across a Fine-Grained Environmental Mosaic: Lessons from Ofu, American Samoa (2018, background): “…the mechanisms underlying variation in thermal tolerance within and among species has been a central focus of ecology for decades and is becoming increasingly urgent as climate change intensifies environmental stressors and alters species distributions (Somero, 2010; Wernberg et al., 2016).”
Oxygen- and capacity-limitation of thermal tolerance: a matrix for integrating climate-related stressor effects in marine ecosystems (2010, background): “, 1994; Hand and Hardewig, 1996), with respect to temperature (Pörtner, 2001; Pörtner, 2002; Pörtner, 2006; Pörtner et al., 2006b; Pörtner et al., 2007; Angiletta, 2009; Somero, 2010) and with respect to CO2 (Ishimatsu et al.”
Chronic exposure to low-dose radiation at Chernobyl favours adaptation to oxidative stress in birds (2014, background): “This among-taxa difference in susceptibility to radiation has already been reported in animals from Fukushima and Chernobyl regarding effects on population abundance (Møller et al. 2013), and susceptibility to natural radioactivity also varies among taxa (Møller & Mousseau 2013).”
The future of seaweed aquaculture in a rapidly changing world (2017, background): “Adaptation in a changing ocean is crucial to identify potential ‘winners’ and ‘losers’ in the climate change stakes (Somero, 2010).”
Climate warming and ectotherm body size – from individual physiology to community ecology (2013, background): “likely experience reductions in growth performance (Somero 2010).”
Land cover disturbance homogenizes aquatic insect functional structure in neotropical savanna streams (2018, background): “Environmental filtering occurs when environmental pressures exceed the physiological tolerance limits of individuals in local populations (Somero, 2010).”
Can amphibians take the heat? Vulnerability to climate warming in subtropical and temperate larval amphibian communities (2012, background): “Determining the communities and species most vulnerable to climate warming is a challenging but important task (Sinervo et al., 2010; Somero, 2010).”
Geographic Variation in Temperature Tolerance as an Indicator of Potential Population Responses to Climate Change (2011, background): “Because geographic variation in temperature tolerance within a species could be due to acclimation and/or adaptation (Kuo and Sanford, 2009), differences in life-history strategies will likely play an important role in the response of populations to increasing temperatures (Somero, 2010).”
