“…Differences in functional rarity metrics across thermal preferences could indicate whether warming temperatures, expected to favor warm-water adapted species and lead to declines in cool and cold-water adapted species (Chu et al, 2005;Poesch, Chavarie, Chu, Pandit, & Tonn, 2016), will increase or decrease functional diversity. Furthermore, fish body size is related to many aspects of fish ecology including reproduction (Blueweiss et al, 1978) and dispersal (Radinger & Wolter, 2014), among others (Woodward et al, 2005;Alofs, 2016), and has also been used to predict vulnerability to predation (Alofs & Jackson, 2015) and shifts in species distributions under changing climate (Alofs, Jackson, & Lester, 2014). Finally,…”
