• Lack of acclimation in Ophionotus victoriae: brittle stars are not fish (2009, background): “…L. S. Peck · A. Massey · M. A. S. Thorne · M. S. Clark (&) British Antarctic Survey, Natural Environment Research Council, High Cross, Madingley Road, Cambridge CB3 0ET, UK e-mail: mscl@bas.ac.uk capacity has been suggested to be the most important mechanism for surviving change (Stillman 2003).”
• Predicting organismal vulnerability to climate warming: roles of behaviour, physiology and adaptation (2012, background): “Such ‘beneficial’ acclimation [64] can help buffer physiological impacts of climate change (figure 3 a ) [22,57,62,66,67] relative to the case of limited acclimation (figure 3 b ).”
• Geographic variation in the upper thermal limits of an intertidal snail: implications for climate envelope models. (2009, background): “Intertidal marine organisms are thought to be particularly vulnerable to global warming, because some of these species appear to be currently living near the edge of their upper thermal limits with little ability to further increase heat tolerance through acclimation (Stillman 2003, Somero 2005).”
• Thermal tolerance and geographical range size in the Agabus brunneus group of European diving beetles (Coleoptera: Dytiscidae) (2007, background): “A limited ability to adjust UTT to environmental temperature changes is likely to affect species’ responses under the current global warming scenario (Stillman, 2003; Somero, 2005).”
• Making sense of heat tolerance estimates in ectotherms: lessons from Drosophila (2011, background): “…vs. warm-adapted lines of Drosophila (Cavicchi et al. 1995), and cold-adapted populations of D. melanogaster – as well as porcelain crab species (Stillman 2003) – exhibit higher acclimatory responses than their warm-adapted counterparts when differences between acclimation temperatures are…”
• Beyond corals and fish: the effects of climate change on noncoral benthic invertebrates of tropical reefs (2008, background): “This section provides a general physiological framework with which to assess impacts of climate change on a broader scale (Stillman, 2003; Helmuth et al., 2005).”
• Can we predict ectotherm responses to climate change using thermal performance curves and body temperatures? (2016, background): “There are hard limits to plasticity of CT max in at least some species (Stillman 2003), which means that behavioural ther-moregulation will be essential for survival of tropical ste-notherms with limited plasticity and small TSMs (Kearney et al. 2009; Sunday et al. 2014).”
• Limited scope for plasticity to increase upper thermal limits (2016, background): “Stillman (2003) found that porcelain crab species living in habitats with the highest maximum temperatures showed the lowest acclimation capacity, consistent with predictions.”
• The physiology of climate change: how potentials for acclimatization and genetic adaptation will determine ‘winners’ and ‘losers’ (2010, methodology): “As in the case of CTmax and acute heat death, the most warm-adapted congeners of porcelain crabs (Stillman, 2003) experience body temperatures closest to the putative pejus temperatures for aerobic function.”
• Geographic Variation in Temperature Tolerance as an Indicator of Potential Population Responses to Climate Change (2011, background): “…because they tend to live closer to their absolute tolerance limits (Stillman and Somero, 2000; Somero, 2005, 2010; Compton et al., 2007; Bonebrake and Mastrandrea, 2010) and have lower acclimation potentials (Stillman, 2003; Somero, 2005; Stenseng et al., 2005; Ghalambor et al., 2006).”
• Impacts of climate warming on terrestrial ectotherms across latitude (2008, background): “For each of 38 species, fitness is integrated over both seasonal and diurnal temperature cycles for both the observed climate of the late 20th century (1950–1990) and for a modelsimulated climate of the late 21st century (2070–2100) (23).”
• Differential response of continental stock complexes of Atlantic salmon (Salmo salar) to the Atlantic Multidecadal Oscillation (2014, background): “The response of salmon to increasing marine habitat temperatures will depend on its ability to adjust, or acclimatize, their thermal sensitivity (Stillman, 2003).”
• Animal temperature limits and ecological relevance: effects of size, activity and rates of change (2009, background): “It has been suggested that the ability to acclimate to changing conditions is the most important criterion in dictating which species will survive and which will fail (Stillman 2003).”
