温度如何影响温血生物生命周期的时间仍然是一个谜，但必须解决它才能预测全球变暖的未来后果。温度对哺乳动物和鸟类生命史阶段的季节时间有很大影响，尽管这些物种可以在很宽的环境温度范围内调节体温。最近的相关研究证明了这种效应，并得到了实验的支持，这些实验证明了环境温度和季节时间之间存在直接的因果关系。预测吸热动物如何应对全球变暖需要了解温度影响生命史季节时间的生理机制。然而，这些机制仍然模糊不清。我们概述了一个研究路线图，旨在确定将温度转化为季节时间的途径。
How temperature affects the timing of life cycles in warm-blooded organisms remains a mystery but must be addressed in order to predict the future consequences of global warming. Temperature has a strong effect on the seasonal timing of life-history stages in both mammals and birds, even though these species can regulate their body temperature under a wide range of ambient temperatures. Correlational studies showing this effect have recently been supported by experiments demonstrating a direct, causal relationship between ambient temperature and seasonal timing. Predicting how endotherms will respond to global warming requires an understanding of the physiological mechanisms by which temperature affects the seasonal timing of life histories. These mechanisms, however, remain obscure. We outline a road map for research aimed at identifying the pathways through which temperature is translated into seasonal timing.
