- Lack of acclimation in Ophionotus victoriae: brittle stars are not fish (2009, background): “Whilst this species can tolerate short-term heat shocks with a mean upper lethal temperature of 12°C (a single individual survived up to 15.2°C) (Peck et al. 2008b), they cannot acclimate to a temperature 10°C lower.”
- Lack of an HSP70 heat shock response in two Antarctic marine invertebrates (2008, background): “O. validus has also been successfully acclimated to +6°C (Peck et al, 2008) and experiments on larvae indicate a certain level of temperature tolerance (Stanwell-Smith and Peck, 1998; Peck and Prothero-Thomas, 2002), indicating that the fish and the sea star are some of the more robust Antarctic…”
- Poor acclimation capacities in Antarctic marine ectotherms (2010, background): “This species can survive for several weeks, and still feeds, at 6C ( Peck et al. 2008 ).”
- Antarctic Marine Biodiversity: Adaptations, Environments and Responses to Change (2018, background): “5°C, but turning rate then slows markedly before the animal’s upper thermal limit at around 10°C (Peck et al. 2008).”
- Quantifying Antarctic marine biodiversity: The SCAR-MarBIN data portal (2011, background): “…are possibly of physiological significance: the Antarctic marine fauna appears to be unusually sensitive to small increases in water temperature (Peck, 2005; Peck et al., 2008, 2009b; Morley et al., 2009), and hence may be vulnerable to even slight shifts in marine climate (Barnes and Peck, 2008).”
