Limited evidence that body size shrinking and shape-shifting alleviate thermoregulatory pressures in a warmer world
Abstract Amassing evidence indicates that vertebrates across the globe are shrinking and changing shape concurrent with rising temperatures. Ecogeographical theories assert that these changes should provide thermoregulatory benefits by easing heat dissipation, however, thermophysical models underpin...
