General predictions for the effects of warming on competition

Kaleigh Davis, Tess Nahanni Grainger, Po‐Ju Ke, Patrick L. Thompson, Mary I. O’Connor, Joey R. Bernhardt

The paper integrates two ecological theories to predict how warming affects competition by reducing niche and fitness differences among species.

Temperature-dependent performance scales with maximum heat tolerance across ectotherms

Amanda S. Cicchino, Jessica Collier, Carling Bieg, Kaleigh Davis, Cameron K. Ghalambor, Alison J. Robey, Jennifer M. Sunday, David A. Vasseur, Joey R. Bernhardt

The paper examines how thermal performance traits and acute heat tolerance covary across ectotherm species, finding that both scale with CTmax but TPCmax increases more steeply.

Evidence of enzyme-level thermal constraint on biological nitrogen fixation rates across systems and scales

Kaleigh Davis, Margaret A. Slein, Mary I. O’Connor

The paper synthesizes experimental data showing nitrogen fixation rates increase consistently with temperature across biological scales, supporting enzyme-level thermal constraints.
