Evolution of plasticity in the city: urban acorn ants can better tolerate more rapid increases in environmental temperature
Because cities contain high levels of impervious surfaces and diminished buffering effects of vegetation cover, urbanized environments can warm faster over the day and exhibit more rapid warming over space due to greater thermal heterogeneity in these environments. Whether organismal physiologies ca...
