Workflow for predicting larval performance values (survival, development duration, and growth traits) under the average temperature experienced during warm event experiments. (a) The average temperature experienced by the larvae if the temperature was constant throughout the experiment was calculated for each replicate across the different warm event conditions. (b) Expected trait values were obtained by fitting models with the control temperatures (15 °C filled blue diamond, 18 °C filled green circle, 21 °C filled yellow rectangle and 24 °C filled red triangle) as fixed effects and the individual females (♀) as a random effect. (c) The expected trait values (filled inverted triangle) under the average temperature were compared with the observed values during warm events (×) by fitting LMMs. The fixed factor, expected/observed was included in the model, in interaction with temperature and timing. The ♀ was used as a random factor.
