For ectothermic animals, there is systematic latitudinal variation in the relationship between climate and thermal performance curves, which describe the relationship between temperature and an organism’s fitness. Here, we ask whether these documented latitudinal patterns can be generalized to predict arthropod responses to warming across mid- and high temperate latitudes, for taxa whose thermal physiology has not been measured. To address this question, we used a novel natural experiment consisting of a series of urban warming gradients at different latitudes.</p></div> <div class="field field--name-field-publication-link field--type-link field--label-hidden field__item">http://robdunnlab.com/wp-content/uploads/Youngsteadt_et_al-2016-Global_Change_B…</div> <div class="clearfix text-formatted field field--name-field-publication-authors field--type-text-long field--label-hidden field__item"><p><a href="/user/28">Elsa Youngsteadt</a>, Andrew F.
