Tropical species are predicted to have limited capacity for acclimation to global warming. This study investigated the potential for developmental thermal acclimation by the tropical damselfish Pomacentrus moluccensis to ocean temperatures predicted to occur over the next 50–100 years. Newly settled juveniles were reared for 4 months in four temperature treatments, consisting of the current-day summer...
Ontogenetic changes and temperature dependency of respiration rate were studied in Dendrobaena mrazeki, an earthworm species inhabiting relatively warm and dry habitats in Central Europe. D. mrazeki showed respiration rate lower than in other earthworm species, < 70 μl O2 g−1 h−1, within the temperature range of 5–35°C. The difference of respiration rate between juveniles and adults was insignificant...
Antarctic marine organisms are considered to have extremely limited ability to respond to environmental temperature change. However, here we show that the Antarctic notothenioid fish Pagothenia borchgrevinki is an exception to this theory. P. borchgrevinki was able to acclimate its resting metabolic rate and resting ventilation frequency after a 5°C rise in temperature. Acute exposure to 4°C resulted...
