• Adapting to climate change: a perspective from evolutionary physiology (2010, background): “…and to thermal limits in general, as well as the application of these physiological measures in the laboratory to ecological problems in nature (e.g. Angilletta et al. 2002, 2006, Loeschcke & Hoffmann 2007, Pörtner & Knust 2007, Kristensen et al. 2008b, Chown et al. 2009, Kellermann et al. 2009).”

• How to assess Drosophila heat tolerance: Unifying static and dynamic tolerance assays to predict heat distribution limits (2019, result): “The values of dCTmax measured in the present study confirm previous reports that faster ramping rates result in a higher dCTmax (Chown et al., 2009; Mitchell & Hoffmann, 2010; Overgaard et al., 2012; Ribeiro et al., 2012; Sørensen et al., 2013; Terblanche et al., 2007) (Figure 4b and Supporting…”
• Making sense of heat tolerance estimates in ectotherms: lessons from Drosophila (2011, methodology): “CTmax (ti) describes the effect of time on basal CTmax, which is often lower in longer assays (Elliott & Elliott 1995; Mora & Maya 2006; Terblanche et al. 2007; Chown et al. 2009; Peck et al. 2009) possibly because individuals’ physical condition deteriorates with time.”
• Mass-rearing of insects for pest management: Challenges, synergies and advances from evolutionary physiology (2012, background): “This initial example of the profound influence of methodology on thermal tolerance estimates has continued to be applied to a number of insect species (Chown et al., 2009; Mitchell and Hoffmann, 2010; Nyamukondiwa and Terblanche, 2010; Overgaard et al., 2011).”
• Estimating the adaptive potential of critical thermal limits: methodological problems and evolutionary implications (2011, methodology): “Therefore, a simple consideration on the impact of metabolic costs on a fly’s resistance to increasing temperatures (see below) predicts CTmax to be positively correlated with DT (at least within certain limits), which is precisely what has been empirically observed in several experiments (Mora & Ma”
• Within‐generation variation of critical thermal limits in adult Mediterranean and Natal fruit flies Ceratitis capitata and Ceratitis rosa: thermal history affects short‐term responses to temperature (2010, background): “Second, the effects of temperature ramping rates on upper and lower CTLs are investigated because this has been shown to be a significant factor in the interpretation of ecologically-relevant thermal limits to activity (Terblanche et al., 2007a, Chown et al., 2009; Mitchell & Hoffmann, 2010).”
• Impact of medium-term exposure to CO2 enriched seawater on the physiological functions of the velvet swimming crab Necora puber. (2010, result): “The thermal tolerance values for Necora puber presented here, after accounting for methodological and acclimatisation differences (see Garland & Adolph 1991, Terblanche et al. 2007, Chown et al. 2009), are comparable to those of Hopkin et al.

• Can amphibians take the heat? Vulnerability to climate warming in subtropical and temperate larval amphibian communities (2012, background): “A final concern is that our CTmax values may be overestimated as, under slower and more realistic heating rates than the ones we have used, CTmax values tend to be lower (Chown et al., 2009; Rezende et al., 2011; M. Tejedo, H. Duarte, M. Simon & M. Katzenberger, unpublished results).”
