ABSTRACT Temperature extremes are predicted to intensify with climate change. These rapidly emerging as a powerful driver of species distributional changes the capacity disrupt functioning and provision services entire ecosystems, particularly when they challenge ecosystem engineers. The subsequent search for robust framework forecast consequences these mostly ignores within‐species variation in thermal sensitivity. Such can be intrinsic, but also reflect interactions.

Abstract Heat‐induced mass mortalities involving ecosystem engineers may have long‐lasting detrimental effects at the community level, eliminating services they provide. Intertidal mussels are ecologically and economically valuable with some populations facing unprecedented heat‐induced mortalities. Critically, also frequently infested by endolithic parasites that modify shell albedo, hence reducing overheating mortality rates under heat stress. Using a biophysical model, we explored...
The demography and individual performance of species at their range edges provide important insight into how climate warming is impacting distributions. boreal limpet Patella vulgata the Lusitanian P. depressa have overlapping geographic ranges local distributions in Britain. We measured 2 leading distribution (North Wales South/South-east England) non-range edge populations South-west England. Individuals towards both were expected to reduced growth rates higher mortality when compared with...
Abstract In shell-secreting molluscs, age and growth rate of individuals hence their performance can normally be measured using lines that are deposited in the shell throughout lives. An annual periodicity line formation warm-water limpet Patella depressa was established marked recaptured from north Wales, UK. Length at suitably prepared sections determined limpets non-range-edge populations two range edges, where different demographic attributes have been recorded. Individuals collected...
