Prospects for survival in the Southern Ocean: vulnerability of benthic species to temperature change (2005, background): “In a detailed global study of size characteristics in amphipod crustaceans Chapelle & Peck (1996, 2004) showed that body sizes are significantly larger at lower temperatures than from warmer latitudes.”
Climate Change and Invasibility of the Antarctic Benthos (2007, background): “Also, groups of both heavily calcified invertebrates (e.g., solitary corals, crinoids, ophiuroids, and calcareous sponges) and lightly calcified taxa (e.g., nemerteans, anthozoans, and amphipods) have species that attain large size in Antarctica (Chapelle & Peck 1999, 2004).”
Why polar gigantism and Palaeozoic gigantism are not equivalent: effects of oxygen and temperature on the body size of ectotherms (2013, background): “A lower bioavailability of oxygen in the cold invalidates the usual explanation of high external availability of oxygen accounting for polar gigantism (Chapelle & Peck 2004).”
Antarctic Marine Biodiversity: Adaptations, Environments and Responses to Change (2018, background): “As oxygen and temperature covary in seawater, both relationships may be a result of a single underlying mechanistic explanation, that Chapelle and Peck (1999, 2004), Peck and Chapelle (2003) and Peck and Maddrell (2005) attributed to oxygen supply limitations.”
