Transgenerational acclimation of fishes to climate change and ocean acidification [ http://f1000.com/prime/reports/b/6/99 ] New studies show that some marine organisms have the capacity to adapt to climate change using "transgenerational acclimation". An example of this is when offspring performance in warmer waters is improved when parents have also experienced warmer waters.
