Cold winter microenvironments conserve energy and improve overwintering survival and potential fecundity of the goldenrod gall fly, Eurosta solidaginis (2003, background): “This contrasts with other freeze-tolerant species that require insulation by snow for protection against cold (e.g. Celatoblatta qinquemaculata; Sinclair 2001).”
Adapting to climate change: a perspective from evolutionary physiology (2010, background): “These findings underscore the need to document rates of environmental change appropriate to the organism of interest (see also Sinclair 2001).”
The importance of fluctuating thermal regimes for repairing chill injuries in the tropical beetle Alphitobius diaperinus (Coleoptera: Tenebrionidae) during exposure to low temperature (2004, background): “The resulting prediction of winter survival of the population appears to be incorrect (Baust & Rojas, 1985; Bale, 1989; Sinclair, 2001; Sinclair et al., 2003).”
Winter climates and coldhardiness in terrestrial insects (2005, background): “The importance of avoiding injurious low temperatures by behavioural and developmental mechanisms was recognized, and authors have investigated the microclimates of some overwintering habitats (Cloudsley-Thompson, 1962; Danks, 1978; Lamb et al., 1985; Ramløv, 1999; Sinclair, 2001).”
