Climate change effects on fishes and fisheries: towards a cause-and-effect understanding. (2010, background): “Such mechanistic knowledge specifies the more empirical descriptions of thermally limited performance in evolutionary thermal biology (Angiletta, 2009).”
Temperature‐driven shifts in a host‐parasite interaction drive nonlinear changes in disease risk (2012, background): “…the response of host-parasite interactions to climate change is that host and parasite responses to temperature are not generally linear, with the performance of organisms increasing up to a particular temperature, beyond which it declines (Thieltges & Rick, 2006; Angilletta, 2009; Lafferty, 2009).”
Vulnerability to climate warming and acclimation capacity of tropical and temperate coastal organisms (2016, background): “comprises regulated responses to diel or seasonal changes in temperature, so as to match physiology to the current environment (Angilletta, 2009).”
Systematic variation in the temperature dependence of physiological and ecological traits (2011, background): “That is, although it is energetically costly to maximize effort at low temperature (3), individuals under attack may do so for survival.”
Are lizards feeling the heat? A tale of ecology and evolution under two temperatures (2013, background): “Animal fitness is greatly influenced by temperature acting on ecological and life-history traits (Angilletta, 2009).”
Geographic variation in vulnerability to climate warming in a tropical Caribbean lizard (2012, background): “…substantially from the mean Te are rare and require high energetic expenditures to occupy them (Huey 1974; Huey & Webster 1976; Huey & Slatkin 1976; but see Angilletta 2009 for a model of how the spatial distribution of available operative tempera- tures can influence thermoregulatory costs).”
Coping with the cold: minimum temperatures and thermal tolerances dominate the ecology of mountain ants (2017, background): “E-mail: tbish@liverpool.ac.uk; thomasrhys.bishop@gmail.com temperature is critical for organisms and has led to a diversity of thermoregulatory adaptations (Angilletta, 2009).”
Warming decreases thermal heterogeneity of leaf surfaces: implications for behavioural thermoregulation by arthropods (2014, background): “They have evolved several thermoregulatory mechanisms to cope with temperature heterogeneity (Chown & Nicolson 2004; Angilletta 2009).”
Field tests of a general ectotherm niche model show how water can limit lizard activity and distribution (2018, background): “The effects of temperature and thermoregulation on the activity budgets and distribution limits of terrestrial ectotherms are well understood (Huey 1982, Dunham et al. 1989, Adolph and Porter 1993, Hertz et al. 1993, Angilletta 2009, Huey et al. 2012, Kearney 2012, 2013).”
