...Nina K. Bean; Peter J. Edmunds ABSTRACT Body size profoundly affects organism fitness and ecosystem dynamics through the scaling of physiological traits. This study tested for variation in metabolic scaling and its potential drivers among corals differing in life history strategies and taxonomic...

... ). In contrast to the lack of genetic variance in allometric slopes, we did observe phenotypic plasticity in metabolic scaling, as the allometric slope decreased with increasing temperature. This negative relationship between metabolic scaling and temperature is not uncommon for ectotherms (e.g. Barlow, 1961...

... growth rules for compound eye growth (facet size versus facet number) in different nests ( Perl and Niven, 2016 ). An explanation for this difference is that environmental effects causing variation in morphological scaling do not affect metabolic scaling. Morphological variability of ant workers...

... ( White and Kearney, 2014 ). These models largely fall into two major approaches: that allometric metabolic scaling is determined (1) by the geometries of internal resource transport networks (e.g. vascular systems) ( Banavar et al., 2010 ; West et al., 1999 ), or (2) by the constraints that the surface...
