A mechanistic model to scale up biophysical processes into geographical size gradients in ectotherms

Aim Understanding the mechanisms behind broad‐scale gradients in animal body size remains challenging. In contrast to endotherms, the extent to which biophysical properties of ectotherms scale up into interspecific size gradients at macroecological scales remains elusive. Our aim here is to investig...
