“…Although the diversity of acclimation responses can be complex (Figure ), there is renewed interest in quantifying thermal acclimation and understanding the selection pressures that generate variation in acclimation capacity. Such studies are increasingly being used to predict responses to global climate change and investigate environmental adaptation (Deutsch et al, ; Duarte, ; Einum et al, ; Gunderson & Stillman, ; Kingsolver, ; Pörtner & Knust, ; Rohr et al, ; Seebacher et al, ; Wythers, Reich, & Bradford, ). For example, the climate variability hypothesis suggests that animals living in thermally variable high latitudes should have broader thermal niches and exhibit stronger thermal acclimation responses than those from the less variable tropics (Angilletta, Condon, & Youngblood, ; Compton, Rijkenberg, Drent, & Piersma, ; Ghalambor, Huey, Martin, Tewksbury, & Wang, ; Janzen, ; Shah et al, ).…”
