TL;DR: It is suggested that it may be necessary to evaluate patterns of physiological diversity as a function of different ecological regions oriented to produce mechanisti... to integrate the understanding of the interaction between physiology and distribution within current global warming scenarios.

TL;DR: Two key approaches are focused on: measuring standing genetic variation within populations and experimental evolution, which highlight benefits and challenges of each approach and recommend future research directions for understanding the modulating role of evolution in a changing ocean.

TL;DR: A positive relationship between upper thermal tolerance and its acclimatory ability is demonstrated in a well-defined clade of closely related European diving beetles, indicating that species with the lowest tolerance to high temperatures will be most at risk from the adverse effects of future warming.

TL;DR: This study is the first to provide empirical support for a relationship between thermal physiology and range size variation in widespread and restricted species, conducted using the same experimental design, within a phylogenetically and ecologically controlled framework.

TL;DR: This article provides a conceptual framework for the continued development of macrophysiology and subdivides this framework into three major components: the establishment ofmacrophysiological patterns, determining the form of those patterns (the very general ways in which they are shaped), and understanding the mechanisms that give rise to them.
