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) …

Because of its profound effects on the rates of biological processes such as aerobic
metabolism, environmental temperature plays an important role in shaping the distribution and …

The accessibility of new genomic resources, high‐throughput molecular technologies and
analytical approaches such as genome scans have made finding genes contributing to fitness …

Populations of common killifish, Fundulus heteroclitus, are distributed along the Atlantic coast
of North America through a steep latitudinal thermal gradient. We examined intraspecific …

Bar-headed geese (Anser indicus) fly at up to 9,000 m elevation during their migration over
the Himalayas, sustaining high metabolic rates in the severe hypoxia at these altitudes. We …

Climate change is predicted to lead to increased average temperatures and greater intensity
and frequency of high and low temperature extremes, but the evolutionary consequences …

A large body of evidence demonstrates that strategies that promote student interactions and
cognitively engage students with content (1) lead to gains in learning and attitudinal …

We identified five Na + /K + -ATPase α-isoforms in rainbow trout and characterized their
expression pattern in gills following seawater transfer. Three of these isoforms were closely …

Widespread recognition of the importance of biological studies at large spatial and temporal
scales, particularly in the face of many of the most pressing issues facing humanity, has …

Although the term environmental stress is used across multiple fields in biology, the
inherent ambiguity associated with its definition has caused confusion when attempting to …
