Rice University researchers found link between rising temperatures and declines in a species' population.
The study shed new light on how global warming threatens natural ecosystems.
For every 7 degrees Celsius increase in temperature, competition effects doubled, causing a dramatic 50% population decline at the highest tested temperature.
The findings challenge assumption that warming always benefits ectotherm populations by boosting individual growth.
