“…For example, the commonly used ramping rate at 0.2–1.0°C/min may be too high compared to how species experience climate change on a daily basis, and studies have found that differences in ramping rates along with other factors including starting temperature and duration of exposure will all affect heat tolerance measurements (Rezende, Tejedo, & Santos, ; Ribeiro, Camacho, & Navas, ; Terblanche, Deere, Clusella‐Trullas, Janion, & Chown, ). Moreover, CT max is evolutionarily conserved and tends to not vary across elevational gradients (Araújo et al, ; Bishop et al, ; Nowrouzi, Andersen, Bishop, & Robson, ), while it can vary significantly even among nestmates (Cerdá & Retana, ; Ribeiro et al, ), and can also be affected by nutritional conditions (Bujan & Kaspari, ). Furthermore, some thermophilic worker ants are active at temperatures near or above CT max with behavioural adjustments including gaster raising, climbing lower vegetation and taking smaller loads to nests (Andrew, Hart, Jung, Hemmings, & Terblanche, ; Cerdá, Retana, & Cros, ; Sunday et al, ).…”
