Abstract:
Abstract. Latitudinal and altitudinal gradients can be utilized to forecast the impact of climate change on forests. To improve the understanding of how these gradients impact forest dynamics, we tested two hypotheses: (1) the change of the tree growth–climate relationship is similar along both latitudinal and altitudinal gradients, and (2) the time periods during which climate affects growth the most occur later towards higher latitudes and altitudes. To address this, we utilized tree-ring data from a latitudinal gradient in Finland and from two altitudinal gradients on the Tibetan Plateau. We analysed the latitudinal and altitudinal growth patterns in tree rings and investigated the growth–climate relationship of trees by correlating ring-width index chronologies with climate variables, calculating with flexible time windows, and using daily-resolution climate data. High latitude and altitude plots showed higher correlations between tree-ring chronologies and growing season temperature. However, the effects of winter temperature showed contrasting patterns for the gradients. The timing of the highest correlation with temperatures during the growing season at southern sites was approximately 1 month ahead of that at northern sites in the latitudinal gradient. In one out of two altitudinal gradients, the timing for the strongest negative correlation with temperature at low-altitude sites was ahead of treeline sites during the growing season, possibly due to differences in moisture limitation. Mean values and the standard deviation of tree-ring width increased with increasing mean July temperatures on both types of gradients. Our results showed similarities of tree growth responses to increasing seasonal temperature between latitudinal and altitudinal gradients. However, differences in climate–growth relationships were also found between gradients due to differences in other factors such as moisture conditions. Changes in the timing of the most critical climate variables demonstrated the necessity for the use of daily-resolution climate data in environmental gradient studies.

Abstract:
AbstractExtensive investigation of the close association between biological diversity and environmental temperature has not yet yielded a generally accepted, empirically validated mechanism to explain latitudinal gradients of species diversity, which occur in most taxa. Using the highly resolved late Cenozoic fossil records of four major taxa of marine plankton, we show that their gradients arise as a consequence of asymmetric geographic range expansion rather than latitudinal variation in diversification rate, as commonly believed. Neither per capita speciation nor extinction rates trend significantly with temperature or latitude for these marine plankton. Species of planktonic foraminifera and calcareous nannoplankton that originate in the temperate zone preferentially spread toward and arrive earlier in the tropics to produce a normal gradient with tropical diversity peaks; by contrast, temperate-zone originating species of diatoms and radiolarians preferentially spread toward and arrive earlier in polar regions to produce reversed gradients with high-latitude diversity peaks. Our results suggest that temperature affects latitudinal diversity gradients chiefly by its effect on species’ range limits rather than on probabilities of speciation and extinction. We show that this mechanism also appears to operate in various multicellular taxa, thus providing a widely applicable explanation for the origin of latitudinal diversity gradients.

Abstract:
The increase in the number of species with decreasing latitude is a striking pattern of global biodiversity. An important feature of studies of this pattern up to now has been the focus on species as the fundamental unit of interest, neglecting potential within-species ecological diversity. Here, we took a new perspective on this topic by measuring the degree to which individuals within populations differ in niche attributes across a latitudinal gradient (range: 54.01° S to 69.12° N). We show that 156 populations of 76 species across a wide range of vertebrate and invertebrate animal taxa contain more ecologically diverse assemblages of individuals towards lower latitudes. Our results add a new level of complexity to our understanding of global patterns of biodiversity and suggest the possibility that niche variation is partly responsible for the latitudinal gradients of species diversity.

Abstract:
Evidence found in results of studies of latitudinal gradients of benthic macroinvertebrate diversity is variable. This study analysed how species and genus richness and the composition of caddisfly assemblages (Insecta: Trichoptera) vary in Argentinean mountain forest through a latitudinal gradient from 22 to 28°S. Qualitative and quantitative data from 20 stream sites were compared. Assemblage richness and composition were analysed by comparing linear regressions, rank–abundance (RA) curves and non-metric multidimensional scaling (nMDS). Taxonomic richness increased from high to low latitude. RA curves showed changes in assemblage composition and structure across the latitudinal gradient. The nMDS revealed that the composition of the assemblages also changed along the latitudinal gradient. The patterns are similar to those observed in plants and vertebrates from the study region. The results are of particular note because a latitudinal gradient of aquatic insect diversity has rarely been observed in a narrow range.

Abstract:
In an attempt to better understand adaptation to north-temperate and boreal environments, I have studied variation in phenology, ecophysiology and single nucleotide polymorphisms in an extensive range-wide collection of Populus balsamifera L. (balsam poplar) populations. Based on three years of observation, I infer that the differences in phenology between two common garden sites, with similar photoperiodic regimes but dramatically different climates, is based on differences in spring start date resulting in different dates of photoperiodic competency for height growth cessation and leaf senescence. Autumn phenophases in balsam poplar are primarily cued by the absolute photoperiod and do not respond to direction of change or climate warming. Interactions between photoperiod, climate and genotype can have large, heretofore unreported effects on root:shoot ratio. By comparison to P. tremula L. (European aspen) and published data for P. trichocarpa Torr. & Gray (black cottonwood), I found, in common garden conditions, a global tendency towards increasing photosynthetic rates with latitude. Height growth, being under photoperiodic control, follows the opposite pattern. When photoperiodic limitations were removed in a greenhouse experiment, higher photosynthesis in high latitude genotypes of balsam poplar was associated with greater height increment. Mesophyll conductance also varied clinally and accounts, in part, for higher photosynthesis in the northern balsam poplar genotypes. Phenotypic data presented in this thesis will ultimately be used for large-scale association genetics in the hopes of identifying candidate genes controlling adaptation to growing season length. As a step in this direction, we examined the comparative nucleotide diversity of the three above Populus species. We confirm that the closely related North American species (i.e., both within the section Tacamahaca) have lower nucleotide diversity than the more distantly related European aspen (section Populus). Divergence between the sections is estimated at about five million years ago, whereas P. balsamifera and P. trichocarpa diverged more recently (~0.8 million years ago). Linkage disequilibrium in balsam poplar decayed rapidly (within 400 bp).

Abstract:
Understanding how temperature affects biological systems is a central question in ecology and evolutionary biology. Anthropogenic climate change adds urgency to this topic, as the demise or success of species under climate change is expected to depend on how temperature affects important aspects of organismal performance, such as growth, development, survival and reproduction. Rates of biological processes generally increase with increasing temperature up to some maximal temperature. Variation in the slope of the initial, rising phase has attracted considerable interest and forms the focus of this thesis. I explore variation in growth rate-temperature relationships over several levels of biological organization, both between and within species, over individuals’ lifetime, depending on the ecological context and in relation to important life history characteristics such as generation length and winter dormancy.       Specifically, I examine how a clade of temperate damselflies have adapted to their thermal environment along a 3,600 km long latitudinal transect spanning from Southern Spain to Northern Sweden. For each of six species, I sampled populations from close to the northern and southern range margin, as well from the center of the latitudinal range. I reared larvae in the laboratory at several temperatures in order to measure indiviudal growth rates. Very few studies of thermal adaptation have employed such an extensive sampling approach, and my finding reveal variation in temperature responses at several levels of organization.       My main finding was that temperature responses became steeper with increasing latitude, both between species but also between latitudinal populations of the same species. Additional genetic studies revealed that this trend was maintained despite strong gene flow. I highlight the need to use more refined characterizations of latitudinal temperature clines in order to explain these findings. I also show that species differ in their ability to acclimate to novel conditions during ontogeny, and propose that this may reflect a cost-benefit trade-off driven by whether seasonal transitions occur rapidly or gradually during ontogeny.       I also carried out a microcosm experiment, where two of the six species were reared either separately or together, to determine the interacting effects of temperature and competition on larval growth rates and population size structure. The results revealed that the effects of competition can be strong enough to completely overcome the rate-depressing effects of low temperatures. I also found that competition had stronger effects on the amount of variation in growth rates than on the average value.       In summary, my thesis offers several novel insights into how temperature affects biological systems, from individuals to populations and across species’ ranges. I also show how it is possible to refine our hypotheses about thermal adaptation by considering the interacting effects of ecology, life history and environmental variation.

Abstract:
The legacy of historical biogeography impacts many organisms and results in a wide range of character variation over a latitudinal gradient. The pitcher-plant mosquito Wyeomyia smithii is one such organism that demonstrates a wide range of phenotypic and genotypic variation over the entirety of its range from the Gulf Coast to Canada. A geographic cline established by the presence and recession of the Laurentide Ice Sheet is manifest in the narrow range of thermal tolerance exhibited by different populations and also in the differing propensity of bloodfeeding by these mosquitoes. These contemporary clines were analyzed by a variety of experimental methods ranging from year-long fitness assays, scanning electron microscopy, and RNA-sequencing to determine the patterns underlying the resulting evolutionary differences among established populations. This dissertation includes both unpublished and co-authored material.

Abstract:
Patterns in polychaete abundance, body size and diversity were investigated at 12 sites between 4300 and 5000 m in the central Pacific and the north-east Atlantic. In the central Pacific, three of the sites (EqPac 0N, 2N and 5N) were observed to lie under high surface productivity regimes, and they were known to receive significant accumulations of food-rich phytodetrital material. The EqPac 9N, HOT 23N, DOMES A, ECHO 1 and PRA sites, which did not receive phytodetritus, were used as control sites with which to investigate the effect of this phytodetrital input. In the north Atlantic, one of the sites (PAP) was known to receive phytodetrital input, and one of the sites (MAP) had been subjected to a large-scale natural disturbance in the form of a turbidite emplacement. All specimens were identified to species level. Two families, the Pilargidae and Cirratulidae were selected for a more detailed alpha taxonomy assessment. New characters were developed for the identification of cirratulid thoracic fragments. Benthic polychaete abundance was correlated with surface productivity in both the Pacific and Atlantic Oceans. There was some evidence to suggest that there was a stronger benthic-pelagic link in the Pacific Ocean, where small changes in surface productivity generated larger changes in abundance than in the Atlantic Ocean. When data from previous studies are included, it is suggested that at levels of surface productivity above 200 gCm'2yr4, there is an upper limit to benthic polychaete abundance. Significant differences in body size between sites were found at species level, family level and for the entire polychaete taxon. At a species level, several abundant cosmopolitan deposit feeding species showed reduced body size in the food-rich phytodetrital sites. The only species to show increased body size in the food-rich sites were two predatory species. Polychaetes in the Atlantic Ocean responded more strongly in terms of body size reduction in phytodetrital sites than they did in the EqPac sites. Three hypotheses were put forward to explain these patterns: increased metabolic efficiency of large organisms in food-poor regions, seasonal recruitment pulses at phytodetrital sites and increased competition at phytodetrital sites. The former was favoured as the most likely explanation. Species diversity was shown to be highest in the phytodetrital sites in the central Pacific. It was hypothesised that this was the result of increased productivity, increased spatio-temporal heterogeneity and increased sediment heterogeneity at these sites. An increase in species diversity at phytodetrital Atlantic sites was not observed. The differences between north Atlantic and central Pacific sites were attributed to regional enrichment of local diversity in the Pacific. At the MAP turbidite site, alpha diversity was significantly lower than at other sites, and dominance was high, indicating the potential for large-scale natural disturbance in the abyss. A new spatio-temporal scale of disturbance was highlighted that may have evolutionary as well as ecological significance. Although levels of alpha diversity were generally shown to be high in the abyss compared to shallow water, the evidence did not suggest in favour of high beta diversity on scales of 1000 to 3000 km in either the central Pacific or north Atlantic. The low levels of beta diversity observed suggest that total species richness in the deep sea may not be as high as previously hypothesised, and that regional processes are likely to significantly impact local ecology in the deep-sea.

Abstract:

For ectotherms living in seasonal environments, time available for development and growth is often constrained by the length of the growth season. Declining season length towards higher latitudes often select for latitudinal clines in development and growth rates, exhibiting increasing growth and developmental rates towards the north. However, the physiological and ecological factors enabling these clines are poorly understood.

Our study system included eight populations of Rana temporaria along a 1500 km latitudinal gradient. We found increased growth rates in populations at higher latitudes to be the result of higher growth efficiency, partly due to increased relative gut length. Populations with higher growth rates also exhibited lower standard metabolic rates, implying that fast-growing individuals are able to achieve high growth rates by spending less energy on maintenance metabolism under low activity conditions.

Predator densities, and antipredatory defenses in prey, are assumed to decrease towards higher latitudes. While all study populations responded to predator presence by decreasing activity and foraging, high latitude populations maintained higher activity levels in the presence of the predator. In trials with a free-ranging predator, high latitude tadpoles experienced higher mortality than those from the low latitudes. The higher activity level in the northern populations increases mortality under predation risk, but is probably needed to maintain high growth and development rates.

When competing over resources, tadpoles from the low latitude population were inferior competitors, as indicated by their longer development time when raised together with high latitude tadpoles. We found no effect of latitude on size-corrected burst speed. The general effect of predator presence on burst speed depended on food availability, with well fed tadpoles being faster in the absence, and food restricted being faster in the presence of a predator.

Nestedness is a particular pattern of species distribution in metacommunities in which a group of species found in poorer sites is a subset of the group of species found in richer sites. In the beta diversity partition context, nestedness is considered one of beta diversity components, jointly with species turnover. However, it is clear now that this term has been used in a wrong way instead of beta diversity due to richness differences. In specific cases that such richness differences reflect an ordered gain or loss of species between sites, then the nested pattern emerges. In the present work I used the beta diversity partition approach, focusing on the richness differences component, combined with a specific metric of nestedness, the NODF, to explore situations in which the richness differences between sites occur in a nested way considering different systems and scales of study. In the first chapter I use aquatic macroinvertebrates communities to show the importance of spatial position of patches of the same microhabitat in generating nestedness in riffles. I found that patches and riffle sites located in the beginning of the riffles are poorer then patches and riffle sites at the end of the same riffles, and that initial sites are nested in final sites in a same riffle. In the second chapter I use birds and mammals communities in the New World to assess how nestedness varies in latitudinal and longitudinal gradients. Nestedness emerged in several regions in both gradients, and it is always related to richness differences in such gradients combined with directional processes that cause an ordered loss or gain of species.
O aninhamento é um padrão ecológico particular de distribuição de espécies em metacomunidades em que o grupo de espécies encontradas em sítios menos ricos é subconjunto daquele encontrado em sítios mais ricos. No contexto de partição de diversidade beta, o aninhamento era considerado, juntamente com a substituição de espécies, um componente da diversidade beta. Porém, atualmente está claro que este termo estava sendo equivocadamente utilizado para se referir à diversidade beta devido a diferenças de riqueza. Em casos específicos em que tais diferenças de riqueza refletem uma perda ou ganho ordenado de espécies entre sítios emerge, então, o aninhamento. No presente trabalho utilizei a abordagem de partição de diversidade beta, focando no componente das diferenças de riqueza, combinada com o uso de uma métrica específica de aninhamento, o NODF, a fim de explorar situações em que a diferença de riqueza entre sítios ocorre de maneira aninhada, considerando diferentes sistemas e escalas de estudo. No primeiro capítulo utilizo comunidades de macroinvertebrados aquáticos para evidenciar a importância da posição espacial de um mesmo micro-habitat na geração de aninhamento em corredeiras. Encontrei que manchas e trechos no início de corredeiras são menos ricos do que no final de corredeiras, e que para trechos há aninhamento da fauna encontrada no trecho inicial em relação à fauna encontrada no trecho final de uma mesma corredeira. No segundo capítulo utilizo comunidades de aves e mamíferos considerando uma escala que abrange todo o Novo Mundo para avaliar como o aninhamento varia ao longo de gradientes latitudinais e longitudinais. O padrão aninhado emergiu em várias regiões de ambos os gradientes, e está sempre relacionado a diferenças de riquezas existentes nesses gradientes combinada com processos direcionais que levam a perda ou ganho ordenado de espécies.
