Evolutionary potential of upper thermal tolerance: biogeographic patterns and expectations under climate change.

Annals of the New York Academy of Sciences - 1 Feb 2017

Diamond Sarah E

Abstract excerpt

How will organisms respond to climate change? The rapid changes in global climate are expected to impose strong directional selection on fitness-related traits. A major open question then is the potential for adaptive evolutionary change under these shifting climates. At the most basic level, evolutionary change requires the presence of heritable variation and natural selection. Because organismal tolerances of...
