How ecological niche breadth evolves is central to adaptation and speciation and has been
a topic of perennial interest. Niche breadth evolution research has occurred within …

Predicting which species will occur together in the future, and where, remains one of the
greatest challenges in ecology, and requires a sound understanding of how the abiotic and …

• Premise of the study: Near‐future climate changes are likely to elicit major vegetation
changes. Disequilibrium dynamics, which occur when vegetation comes out of equilibrium …

Drought stress retards wheat plant's vegetative growth and physiological processes and
results in low productivity. A stressed plant synthesizes ethylene which inhibits root …

Current predictions on species responses to climate change strongly rely on projecting
altered environmental conditions on species distributions. However, it is increasingly …

Birds are among the most widely studied organisms on earth and represent an important
indicator group for learning about the effects of climate change–particularly in regard to the …

Most multicellular terrestrial organisms experience climate at scales of millimetres to metres,
yet most species‐climate associations are analysed at resolutions of kilometres or more …

Aim Biotic interactions–within guilds or across trophic levels–have widely been ignored in
species distribution models (SDMs). This synthesis outlines the development of 'species …

Species distribution modeling (SDM: statistical and/or mechanistic approaches to the
assessment of range determinants and prediction of species occurrence) offers new …

The high Arctic has the world's simplest terrestrial vertebrate predator–prey community, with
the collared lemming being the single main prey of four predators, the snowy owl, the Arctic …
