Thermal performance curves, phenotypic plasticity, and the time scales of temperature exposure.

Integrative and comparative biology - 1 Nov 2011

Schulte Patricia M, Healy Timothy M, Fangue Nann A

Abstract excerpt

Thermal performance curves (TPCs) describe the effects of temperature on biological rate processes. Here, we use examples from our work on common killifish (Fundulus heteroclitus) to illustrate some important conceptual issues relating to TPCs in the context of using these curves to predict the responses of organisms to climate change. Phenotypic plasticity has the capacity to alter the shape and position of the...
