  • Endothermy makes fishes faster but does not expand their thermal niche 

    Donohue, Ian; Harding, Lucy; Payne, Nicholas; Jackson, Andrew; Barnett, Adam; Halsey, Lewis; Huveneers, Charlie; Meyer, Carl; Papastamatiou, Yannis; Semmens, Jayson M.; Spencer, Erin; Watanabe, Yuuki (Functional Ecology, 2021-06-30)
    Regional endothermy has evolved several times in marine fishes, and two competing hypotheses are generally proposed to explain the evolutionary drivers behind this trait: thermal niche expansion and elevated cruising speeds. ...

  • Temperature and the ecophysiology of marine ectotherms
