“…Species can adjust to local temperatures through physiological acclimatization of individuals within their lifespan through phenotypic plasticity, and/or selection for particular phenotypes within populations leading to changes in genetic variation across generations (Somero, 2010). Documenting phenotypic differences along thermal gradients can thus inform conservation and restoration efforts (Anthony et al, 2020; Bowden-Kerby, 2022) by improving predictions of species adaptive potential (Bennett et al, 2019), climate refugia (Lachs, Humanes, Mumby, et al, 2023) or extinctions (Sinervo et al, 2010). As such, thermal tolerance variation has been documented across terrestrial and marine taxa including plants (Reusch, 2014; Smith et al, 2017), reptiles (Herrando-Pérez et al, 2019), arthropods (Franken et al, 2018), birds (Charmantier et al, 2008; Noakes et al, 2016), marine invertebrates (Morley et al, 2012) and fishes (Fangue et al, 2006; McKenzie et al, 2021).…”
