Phenotypic Rates of Change Evolutionary and Ecological Database (PROCEED) is an ongoing compilation of rates of phenotypic change, typically Haldanes and Darwins, published in peer-reviewed manuscripts. This database includes studies that measure the intraspecific change in quantitative (continuous or counting) traits and report the time elapsed fr... |

Ward, Wendy, 2026, "Effect of supplementation with red rooibos tea on body composition, metabolic outcomes and movement in ovariectomized Sprague-Dawley rats", https://doi.org/10.5683/SP3/NSSXDZ, Borealis, V1, UNF:6:OpODVgX9q5+W3kMuiOYVhw== [fileUNF]
Menopause is associated with increases in visceral adipose tissue (VAT), reductions in lean mass, and a reduced energy expenditure. The ovariectomized (OVX) rat model can be used to model these changes, and to test potential interventions that may attenuate this response. Red rooibos (RR), due to its high polyphenol content, may counter the effect... |

Denommé, Melanie; Tattersall, Glenn J., 2025, "Replication data for "Try before you buy: Preferences for naturalistic-style enclosures are influenced by experience in bearded dragons (Pogona vitticeps)"", https://doi.org/10.5683/SP3/IYN6GW, Borealis, V5, UNF:6:Od0vXyItwCDPP6JVzDawrw== [fileUNF]
To ensure their welfare in captivity, reptiles are typically provided enclosures that aim to mimic their natural environment, as such enclosures may be preferred and better facilitate important behaviours. Research has frequently supported this principle, and has often found that reptiles’ preferences for naturalistic resources are innate. Regardle... |

Tattersall, Glenn; Katlyn Dundas; Philip Bartel; Andy Turko, 2025, "Replication Data for: Terrestrial emergence reflects lower thermal preferences in the mangrove rivulus (Kryptolebias marmoratus)", https://doi.org/10.5683/SP3/8L9HQZ, Borealis, V1, UNF:6:gnu7P1KalSX7FxgCbr+zuQ== [fileUNF]
Many fishes exploit the terrestrial environment. Some of these amphibious species use it as an ecological release, others for feeding, while others use land to escape aquatic stressors. Another hypothesis is that amphibious fishes leave water to thermoregulate, but there is little corroborating data. One of the most intriguing fish that emerges ont... |

Tattersall, Glenn J; Giacometti, Danilo; Benítez, Luis Fernando M; Denommé, Melanie; Andrade, Denis V, 2025, "Replication Data for: Handle with care: the thermal consequences of short-term handling in mole salamanders", https://doi.org/10.5683/SP3/U3ZPZA, Borealis, V1, UNF:6:alvd4EyOT9QyGSOAccUNug== [fileUNF]
Accurately measuring body temperature is critical for understanding how ectotherms interact with their thermal environment. In amphibians, traditional methods like cloacal thermometry often require restraint, potentially altering body temperature through stress and heat transfer from human hands. Here, we used infrared thermography to examine how s... |

Kumbhani, Harry; Abney, Curtis; Giacometti, Danilo; Tattersall, Glenn, 2025, "Replication Data for: "Operative temperatures of Eastern Garter Snakes (Thamnophis sirtalis sirtalis) reveal a Goldilocks effect for habitat use"", https://doi.org/10.5683/SP3/UVAQ7M, Borealis, V1, UNF:6:FDwxqr/zgrV/oUAJK6eDcw== [fileUNF]
Garter snakes (Thamnophis spp.) are the most widespread reptiles in North America. Despite occupying vastly different biogeoclimatic zones, evidence suggests that thermal preference has not diverged among populations or Thamnophis species. The use of flexible thermoregulatory behaviours and habitat use could account for stability in thermal prefere... |

Giacometti, Danilo; Tattersall, Glenn, 2024, "Data set to accompany manuscript "Seasonal plasticity in the thermal sensitivity of metabolism but not water loss in a fossorial ectotherm"", https://doi.org/10.5683/SP3/MQPFHT, Borealis, V2, UNF:6:kIe3axAvkl4RlgbPWCKUAw== [fileUNF]
Ectotherms from highly seasonal habitats should have enhanced potential for physiological plasticity to cope with climatic variability. However, whether this pattern is applicable to fossorial ectotherms, who are potentially buffered from thermal variability, is still unclear. Here, we evaluated how seasonal acclimatisation (spring vs. autumn) affe... |
