Light and energetics at seasonal extremes limit poleward range shifts

Nature Climate Change, Published online: 13 May 2021; doi:10.1038/s41558-021-01045-2

Using mechanistic models that incorporate visual foraging and temperature-driven physiology for two fish types, the authors reveal how latitudinal light gradients, which are not affected by climate change, can constrain warming-related shifts to high latitudes.
