Journal ArticleDOI
Impacts of climate warming on terrestrial ectotherms across latitude.
Curtis Deutsch,Joshua J. Tewksbury,Raymond B. Huey,Kimberly S. Sheldon,Cameron K. Ghalambor,David C. Haak,Paul R. Martin,Paul R. Martin +7 more
TL;DR: The results show that warming in the tropics, although relatively small in magnitude, is likely to have the most deleterious consequences because tropical insects are relatively sensitive to temperature change and are currently living very close to their optimal temperature, so that warming may even enhance their fitness.
Journal ArticleDOI
Do baseline glucocorticoids predict fitness
TL;DR: Overall, baseline cort can predict the relative fitness of individuals and populations, but the relationship is not always consistent or present.
Journal ArticleDOI
Are mountain passes higher in the tropics? Janzen's hypothesis revisited
TL;DR: General support for many assumptions and predictions are found, but several issues are called attention that somewhat ameliorate the generality of Janzen's classic hypothesis.
Journal ArticleDOI
Parental care and clutch sizes in North and South American birds.
Thomas E. Martin,Thomas E. Martin,Paul R. Martin,Christopher R. Olson,Britt J. Heidinger,Joseph J. Fontaine +5 more
TL;DR: A detailed study of bird species in Arizona and Argentina shows that Skutch's hypothesis explains clutch size variation within North and South America, but neither Skutch’s hypothesis nor two major alternatives explain differences between latitudes.
Journal ArticleDOI
The relationship between fitness and baseline glucocorticoids in a passerine bird
TL;DR: A positive relationship between baseline cort and fitness components during the nestling period suggests that reproductive investment may elicit higher cort levels that feedback to reallocate more effort to reproduction during critical periods of nestling provisioning.
