Data from: In a warmer Arctic, mosquitoes avoid increased mortality from predators by growing faster
Climate change is altering environmental temperature, a factor that influences ectothermic organisms by controlling rates of physiological processes. Demographic effects of warming, however, are determined by the expression of these physiological effects through predator–prey and other species inter...
