Bergmann and Converse Bergmann Latitudinal Clines in Arthropods: Two Ends of a Continuum?1 (2004, background): “Analogous seasonal time constraints can be caused by altitude (e.g., Berven, 1982a, b; Dingle et al., 1990; Blanckenhorn, 1997; Fischer and Fiedler, 2002; Chown and Klok, 2003).”
Temperature, Growth Rate, and Body Size in Ectotherms: Fitting Pieces of a Life-History Puzzle1 (2004, methodology): “Still, biologists have had more difficulty finding plausible explanations for these rules than they have had finding causes for exceptions.”
Changes in reproductive investment with altitude in an alpine plant (2009, background): “Indeed, the relationship between vegetative growth and reproduction may be highly plastic in response to different environments (Fischer and Fiedler 2002; Sultan 2000).”
Phenotypic plasticity and optimal timing of metamorphosis under uncertain time constraints (2007, background): “…and mass at metamorphosis along a gradient of fixed abundance and food conditions, which is opposite to the relation usually observed in amphibians and other organisms (Wilbur 1980; Gotthard and Nylin 1995 but see also Berrigan and Charnov 1994 for insects and Reznick for maturation in guppies).”
Body size variation in insects: a macroecological perspective (2010, background): “In many insect species adult feeding may lead to additional mass gain even though adult linear dimensions are fixed and, in a few others, circumstances during the pupal stage may affect adult mass (Fischer & Fiedler, 2002).”
The effect of fluctuating temperatures on ectotherm life-history traits: comparisons among geographic populations of Wyeomyia smithii (2008, background): “Many studies have explored differences in the relationship between life-history traits and mean temperature among geographic populations that occur along latitudinal and altitudinal clines (e.g. Blanckenhorn and Fairbairn, 1995; Fischer and Fiedler, 2002; Hallas et al., 2002; Berner et al., 2004; Br”
