Variation in temperature of peak trait performance will constrain adaptation of arthropod populations to climatic warming.

S. Pawar, P. Huxley, T. Smallwood, M. Nesbit, A. Chan, M. Shocket, L. R. Johnson, D. - G. Kontopoulos, L. Cator

This study shows that arthropod adaptation to warming is constrained by trait performance temperature shifts and trade-offs, using a global dataset of 61 species.
