“…The issue of extinction risk and potential for evolution under climate change remains hotly debated (Chown et al, 2010;Mitchell, Sgrò, & Hoffmann, 2011;Sgrò et al, 2010), particularly with respect to risk posed to those living in the biodiverse tropics (Hoffmann, 2010;Perez, Stroud, & Feeley, 2016;van de Pol, Jenouvrier, Cornelissen, & Visser, 2017). Nonetheless, recent studies suggest existing local adaptations will likely play a key role in reducing extinction risk by facilitating an adaptive response, for example, by reducing metabolic costs in ocean fish (Moffett, Fryxell, Palkovacs, Kinnison, & Simon, 2018) and by reducing bleaching events in corals (Matz, Treml, Aglyamova, & Bay, 2018).…”
