Increased night-time temperatures, through their influence on dark respiration, have been implicated as a reason behind decreasing growth rates in tropical trees in the face of contemporary climate change. Seedlings of two neo-tropical tree species (Ficus insipida and Ochroma pyramidale) were grown in controlled-environment chambers at a constant daytime temperature (33°C) and a range of increa...

Bivalves and seagrasses can interact through diverse environmentally-modulated mechanisms. To assess the effects of climate warming on bivalve-seagrass interactions, we carried out a pioneering field experiment in which open top chambers (OTCs) were used to increase air sediment temperature shellfish bed NW Spain during two consecutive spring tides (16 days exposure OTCs). The produced by OTCs ...
