Thermal stress and morphological adaptations in limpets (2009, background): “2 °C for 1–2 h before water loss becomes severe and evaporative cooling is no longer effective (Williams et al. 2005).”
Variations in cardiac performance and heat shock protein expression to thermal stress in two differently zoned limpets on a tropical rocky shore (2011, methodology): “After acclimation, animals were placed under a seawater spray (28 C and 31 psu) for 30 min to allow them to replenish mantle water lost during transfer (Williams et al. 2005) and then subjected to a simulated ‘‘emersion’’ period.”
Geographic Variation in Temperature Tolerance as an Indicator of Potential Population Responses to Climate Change (2011, background): “Thus, for littorines as well as other marine species, microhabitat buffering (i.e. movement into nearby algal canopies, rock crevices, and cracks) and other behavioral responses (e.g.,Williams et al., 2005;Miller, 2008) could ameliorate stressful exposures (Williamset al., 2008).”
