- Shrinking body size as an ecological response to climate change (2011, background): “The tendency towards smaller individuals with increasing temperature is also favoured by Bergmann's rule, which predicts that endotherms should be larger in colder environments to conserve heat through thermal inerti”
- Bergmann's rule in mammals: a cross-species interspecific pattern (2013, unknown): “Inter-specifi c comparisons that directly link a species body size to a single value that characterises its geographic or environmental habitat were mostly restricted to ectothermic organisms (Lindsey 1966, Kaspari and Vargo 1995, Adams and Church 2008, Pincheira-Donoso et al. 2008, Olalla-T á rraga ”
