Thermal pace-of-life strategies improve phenological predictions in ectotherms

Abstract Phenological variability among populations is widespread in nature. A few predictive phenological models integrate intrapopulational variability, but none has ever explored the individual strategies potentially occurring within a population. The “pace-of-life” syndrome accounts for such ind...
