| dc.description.abstract | Intraspecific variation in thermal tolerance can favor species persistence in a warmer ocean, but is often over-looked in fine-scale studies. Nonetheless, local drivers (e.g. salinity) interact with temperature to shape species' thermal response. Here, we acclimated juveniles of Brazilian silversides Atherinella brasiliensis captured at the limits of a marine-estuarine ecocline under reciprocal-cross conditions, to test for phenotypic plasticity in heat tolerance. We also tested whether silversides acclimated to temperatures predicted for 2100 (+3-4.5 degrees C). Fish in warm-brackish waters showed higher CTMax (Critical Thermal Maximum) than those in cold-marine conditions, regardless of their origin. Silversides' CTMax reached up to 40.6 degrees C, but it did not increase after exposure to temperatures predicted for 2100. Lack of acclimation response suggests that silversides heat tolerance has reached a "ceiling", despite thermal plasticity. Our findings show that fine-scale environmental heterogeneity can promote phenotypic plasticity for tropical species, reducing the risk of short-term extirpation. | pt_PT |
