The interaction of widespread stressors such as nitrate pollution and increasing temperatures associated with climate change are likely to affect aquatic ectotherms such as amphibians. The metamorphic and physiological traits of amphibian larvae during the critical onset of metamorphosis are particularly susceptible to these stressors. We conducted a common-garden experiment using Rana temporaria larvae subjected to four constant acclimation temperatures (18, 22, 26, 28 °C) crossed with three environmentally relevant nitrate concentrations (0, 50, 100 mg × L-1) to investigate the interactive and individual effects of these stressors on metamorphic (i.e., growth and development) and physiological traits (i.e., metabolism and heat tolerance) at the onset of metamorphosis. Larvae exposed to elevated nitrate concentrations and thermal stress displayed increased metabolic rates but decreased developmental rate, highlighting interactive effects of these stressors. However, nitrate pollution alone had no effect on either metamorphic or physiological traits, suggesting that detoxification processes were sufficient to maintain homeostasis but not in combination with increased acclimation temperatures. Furthermore, larvae exposed to nitrate displayed diminished abilities to exhibit temperature-induced plasticity in metamorphosis timing and heat tolerance, as well as reduced acclimation capacity in metabolic rate and heat tolerance to higher temperatures. These results highlight the importance of considering the exposure to multiple stressors when investigating how natural populations respond to global change.
