Most existing models emphasize temperatures below the thermal optimum or rely on particular thermal\u2010response formulations.<\/jats:p>\n <\/jats:list-item>\n \n We develop a density\u2010dependent generalized Lotka\u2013Volterra framework for pairwise exploitative competition in which temperature modifies competition through relative resource consumption. Coexistence is quantified using a normalized structural feasibility measure that captures the range of environmental conditions compatible with positive equilibria.<\/jats:p>\n <\/jats:list-item>\n \n The framework yields one structural prediction: pairwise coexistence is maximized when temperature balances the effective competitive asymmetry between competitors. Under symmetric resource overlap, this balance occurs when the two consumption curves intersect. This result is independent of the particular unimodal thermal response function used.<\/jats:p>\n <\/jats:list-item>\n \n We then use representative left\u2010skewed, symmetric and right\u2010skewed unimodal responses to illustrate how thermal response shape influences coexistence. Whereas the analytical balance condition is invariant, stronger ecological patterns\u2014including asymmetries between warming and cooling and the location of the coexistence maximum for species with different thermal optima\u2014depend on the assumed response shape.<\/jats:p>\n <\/jats:list-item>\n \n \n A qualitative comparison with classic pairwise\n Drosophila<\/jats:italic>\n competition experiments at and is consistent with one illustrative left\u2010skewed parameter regime, but is not intended as a quantitative parameter fit.\n <\/jats:p>\n <\/jats:list-item>\n \n By separating structural predictions from illustrative thermal response effects, our framework provides a transparent way to connect organismal thermal biology with pairwise competitive coexistence while avoiding reliance on any single thermal performance model.<\/jats:p>\n <\/jats:list-item>\n <\/jats:list>\n <\/jats:p>","DOI":"10.1111\/1365-2656.70360","type":"journal-article","created":{"date-parts":[[2026,9,28]],"date-time":"2026-09-28T13:14:15Z","timestamp":1790601255000},"update-policy":"https:\/\/doi.org\/10.1002\/crossmark_policy","source":"Crossref","is-referenced-by-count":0,"title":["Modelling the effect of temperature on species coexistence"],"prefix":"10.1111","author":[{"ORCID":"https:\/\/orcid.org\/0000-0003-1768-363X","authenticated-orcid":false,"given":"Serguei","family":"Saavedra","sequence":"first","affiliation":[{"name":"Department of Civil and Environmental Engineering MIT Cambridge Massachusetts USA"},{"name":"Santa Fe Institute Santa Fe New Mexico USA"}],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]},{"given":"Yuguang","family":"Yang","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Department of Civil and Environmental Engineering MIT Cambridge Massachusetts USA"}],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]},{"given":"Jos\u00e9 Ignacio","family":"Arroyo","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Santa Fe Institute Santa Fe New Mexico USA"}],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]},{"given":"Christopher P.","family":"Kempes","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Santa Fe Institute Santa Fe New Mexico USA"}],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]}],"member":"311","published-online":{"date-parts":[[2026,9,28]]},"reference":[{"key":"e_1_2_10_2_1","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.1038\/nature14952"},{"issue":"2","key":"e_1_2_10_3_1","doi-asserted-by":"crossref","first-page":"178","DOI":"10.1086\/663677","article-title":"A framework for elucidating the temperature dependence of fitness","volume":"179","author":"Amarasekare P.","year":"2012","journal-title":"The American Naturalist"},{"key":"e_1_2_10_4_1","doi-asserted-by":"crossref","DOI":"10.1093\/acprof:oso\/9780198570875.001.1","volume-title":"Thermal adaptation: A theoretical and empirical synthesis","author":"Angilletta M.
