This journal publishes research on the physiological and ecological adaptations of animals. Studies investigate how animals respond to environmental factors such as temperature, salinity, and substrate variations, and how these responses impact their physiology, metabolism, and behavior. The journal also covers topics related to animal development, reproduction, and immune function, as well as the effects of environmental contaminants like microplastics.
