• Putting Eggs in One Basket: Ecological and Evolutionary Hypotheses for Variation in Oviposition-Site Choice (2010, background): “Incubation temperature has a profound effect on embryo survival (e.g., Schwarzkopf & Brooks 1987), which is thought to be more important in nest-site choice than sex ratio adjustment in species with temperature-dependent sex determination (TSD) (see Hypothesis 3 below; Ewert et al. 2005).”
• Investigating the potential impacts of climate change on a marine turtle population (2007, background): “r 2007 The Authors Journal compilation r 2007 Blackwell Publishing Ltd, Global Change Biology, 13, 923–932 studied (e.g. Wibbels, 2003; Godfrey & Mrosovsky, 2006; but see studies in fresh water turtles e.g. Ewert et al., 2005).”
• Impacts of climate change on the amphibians and reptiles of Southeast Asia (2010, background): “The effects of ambient temperature increases may be partly mitigated by females choosing cooler nest sites to modify offspring sex ratios (Ewert et al. 2005; Allsop et al. 2006; Doody et al. 2006; Telemeco et al. 2009), but it is unlikely that behavioural modifications can fully offset the effects…”
• Nest site choice compensates for climate effects on sex ratios in a lizard with environmental sex determination (2006, background): “Our study, along with the findings of Ewert et al. (2005) extend to the egg stage the life history theory prediction that behavioural compensation is the chief mechanism for adjustment to amongpopulation climatic differences, although the former study also implicated a physiological mechanism…”
