“…Experimental studies on adaptation costs generally focus on costs induced by a constant stress from a single stressor (Jansen, Stoks, et al., 2011; Ward & Robinson, 2005; Xie & Klerks, 2003) or from a simultaneous combination of stressors (Jansen, de Meester, Cielen, Buser, & Stoks, 2011; Jasmin & Kassen, 2007; Koskella, Lin, Buckling, & Thompson, 2012). Comparatively few studies have examined how populations adapt to a temporally heterogeneous environment and its consequence on adaptation costs (MagalhĂŁes, Cailleau, Blanchet, & Olivieri, 2014; Reed et al., 2003; Turner & Elena, 2000), despite the fact that wild populations experience temporal environmental heterogeneity (Hedrick, 1986; Levins, 1968).…”
