Can we predict ectotherm responses to climate change using thermal performance curves and body temperatures? (2016, background): “Finally, thermal regimes in nature often repeat themselves (but see above for exceptions); for most habitats, diel thermal cycles mean that an ectotherm that lives for more than a few hours will be exposed to repeated warm-cold ﬂuctuations (Colinet et al. 2015).”
Limited scope for plasticity to increase upper thermal limits (2016, background): “…studies have found that exposure to constant vs. fluctuating temperature can affect thermal tol- erance and plastic responses (Bozinovic et al. 2011; Fischer et al. 2011; Foray, Desouhant & Gibert 2014; Colinet et al. 2015), although the mechanisms underlying these dif- ferences remain unknown.”
Wild bee abundance declines with urban warming, regardless of floral density (2018, background): “As small-bodied ectotherms whose metabolism depends on temperature, insects are sensitive to warming (Nooten et al. 2014; Colinet et al. 2015).”
Insect responses to global change offer signposts for biodiversity and conservation (2020, background): “In addition, the effects of daily temperature fluctuations on insect performance are likely to be underestimated by experiments using constant temperature treatments (Paaijmans et al., 2013; Colinet et al., 2015).”
Handbook of protocols for standardized measurement of terrestrial invertebrate functional traits (2017, neutral): “Here, the importance of static conditions relative to fluctuating ones (e.g. Colinet et al. 2015), which reflect the natural environment more closely, is discussed.”
Grapevine insect pests and their natural enemies in the age of global warming (2016, background): “In particular, high summer temperatures beyond the species-specific optimal zones and tolerance limits as well as the interaction between mean temperature and temperature variability can negatively affect developmental rates, reproduction or survival of arthropods (Berg et al. 2010; Colinet et al. 2”
Modeling temperature‐dependent development rate and phenology in insects: review of major developments, challenges, and future directions (2018, background): “Even if the effect of fluctuating temperatures is not always significant on the development rate at some temperatures, there is evidence that it plays a central role in insect development and should be accounted for in field predictivemodels (Colinet et al., 2015).”
