• Ecological Networks in a Changing Climate (2010, background): “Peters, 1983; Yodzis and Innes, 1992) merit augmentation by fitting temperature as an additional component to predict ecological responses (Clarke, 2006).”
• Size, temperature, and fitness: Three rules (2008, background): “These thermodynamic models have been challenged on conceptual grounds (Clarke and Fraser, 2004; Clarke, 2006; Clarke and Gaston, 2006; Terblanche et al. , 2007) , and also tested empirically (O’Connor et al. , 2007) .”
• Global metabolic impacts of recent climate warming (2010, background): “The exponent(3/4)formetabolicrateasafunctionofmassisdebated 16–18 , but reasonable shifts of this exponent for given taxa will only alter the heights of all latitudinal lines, not their relative ordering.”
• Consistent temperature dependence of respiration across ecosystems contrasting in thermal history (2012, background): “The ‘universality’ of the temperature dependence of respiration has, however, been a topic of considerable debate (Atkin & Tjoelker, 2003; Clarke, 2004, 2006; Clarke & Fraser, 2004; Davidson et al., 2006; Gillooly et al., 2006), in part, because a substantial body of work has demonstrated…”
• Exploring plastic and genetic responses to temperature variation using copper butterflies (2010, background): “Temperature is one of the most important ecological factors affecting life directly and indirectly at all spatial and temporal scales (Johnston & Bennett 1996, Angilletta & Dunham 2003, Clarke 2003, 2006, Hoffmann et al. 2003, Sinclair et al. 2003).”
• The effects of temperature on aerobic metabolism: towards a mechanistic understanding of the responses of ectotherms to a changing environment (2015, background): “Many of the underlying mechanistic aspects of the MTE, which were based on the properties of fractal networks, have been criticized (Clarke, 2004, 2006; Clarke and Fraser, 2004; Cyr and Walker, 2004; O’Connor et al., 2007; Martínez del Rio, 2008) and as a result, the MTE might more accurately be…”
