This book provides a modern, synthetic overview of interactions between insects and their environments from a physiological perspective that integrates information across a range of approaches and scales. It examines how insects obtain resources, process them, and convert them into energy, enabling them to regulate their internal environment and cope with environmental extremes. The authors demonstrate that physiological responses exhibit substantial temporal variation and coherent variation across several spatial scales, with implications for biodiversity patterns and responses to climate change.
