Future changes to the pH and temperature of the oceans are predicted to impact the biodiversity of marine ecosystems, particularly those animals that rely on the process of calcification. The marine intertidal gastropod Littorina littorea can be used as a model of intertidal org…
An imperiled population of endemic North American Burbot (Lota lota maculosa) inhabiting the lower Kootenai River in a transboundary region of Idaho and British Columbia struggles with recruitment failures linked to incompatibility between early life history patterns and upstrea…
Grasslands occupy more of Earth’s terrestrial surface than any other biome and are characterized by the dominance of grasses (Poaceae), fire, grazing, and an inherently variable climate. Future climate projections forecast dramatic shifts in precipitation within the next 100 yea…
Across their life cycles, animals must make constant adjustments in physiology and behavior to meet predictable life-history demands while also accommodating unpredictable perturbations that affect individual survivorship. However, our ability to predict the behavioral and physi…
