The real stories behind the latest research papers, from conception to publication, the highs and the lows
Do fishes really get smaller with warming?
Experimental evidence shows that ectotherms grow to smaller sizes in warmer temperatures. Yet, it is not clear how this affects average body sizes in wild populations, where growth, mortality, recruitment and interactions with other organisms all occur simultaneously.
