Adaptive evolution shapes the present-day distribution of the thermal sensitivity of population growth rate

Developing a thorough understanding of how ectotherm physiology adapts to different thermal environments is of crucial importance, especially in the face of global climate change. A key aspect of an organism's thermal performance curve (TPC)-the relationship between fitness-related trait perfor...
