Summary
This action funds an NSF Postdoctoral Research Fellowship in Biology for FY 2025. The fellowship supports research and training of the fellow that will contribute to biology in innovative ways. Temperature and moisture influence where organisms, including butterflies, can live, grow and reproduce making them potentially vulnerable to changes in temperature and precipitation. While many studies have focused on responses to temperature, few have considered the effects of moisture change, such as dehydration during extreme drought periods, and how this might combine with temperature to adversely
