This study introduces a new temperature damage model to interpret the thermal stress of ectothermic organisms. The model assumes that damage depends on the balance between temperature-dependent accumulation and constant repair. The model showed good agreement with the measured survival of Gammarus pulex, and it demonstrated the ability to predict temperature effects for various environmental scenarios. The study contributes to the mechanistic understanding of temperature as a single stressor and facilitates the incorporation of temperature as an additional stressor in multistressor effect models.
Temperature is a crucial environmental factor affecting the distribution and performance of ectothermic organisms. This study introduces a new temperature damage model to interpret their thermal stress. Inspired by the ecotoxicological damage model in the General Unified Threshold model for Survival (GUTS) framework, the temperature damage model assumes that damage depends on the balance between temperature-dependent accumulation and constant repair. Mortality due to temperature stress is driven by the damage level exceeding a threshold. Model calibration showed a good agreement with the measured survival of Gammarus pulex exposed to different constant temperatures. Further, model simulations, including constant temperatures, daily temperature fluctuations, and heatwaves, demonstrated the model's ability to predict temperature effects for various environmental scenarios. With this, the present study contributes to the mechanistic understanding of temperature as a single stressor while facilitating the incorporation of temperature as an additional stressor alongside chemicals in mechanistic multistressor effect models.
