“…Likewise, it is clear that the critical temperature measured by dynamic methods depends on the rate at which temperature is increased (Overgaard, Kristensen, & Sørensen, ; Sørensen, Loeschcke, & Kristensen, ; Terblanche, Deere, Clusella‐Trullas, Janion, & Chown, ). It has also been discussed if static and dynamic assays impose the same form of heat stress on the animal (Castañeda, Rezende, & Santos, ; Cooper, Williams, & Angilletta, ; Kilgour & McCauley, ; Mitchell & Hoffmann, ; Rezende et al, ; Santos, Castañeda, & Rezende, ; Sgrò et al, ; Terblanche et al, ), and several studies have therefore highlighted the apparent problem of comparing results across the two assays. Finally, both assays have been questioned for their aptness in describing thermal tolerance in ecologically relevant settings (Chown, Jumbam, Sørensen, & Terblanche, ; Lutterschmidt & Hutchison, ; Mitchell & Hoffmann, ; Ribeiro, Camacho, & Navas, ; Terblanche et al, ).…”
