Abstract Only 7% of the Atlantic Forest Biodiversity Hotspot is currently protected, though it
holds 18% of all amphibian species in South America. How effective would the Atlantic …

Climate refuges have been used by several species over historical climate change.
Ectothermic species often display good models for climate change studies because they are …

Spatial conservation prioritization should seek to anticipate climate change impacts on
biodiversity and to mitigate these impacts through the development of dynamic conservation …

Climate and land-use change are major drivers of biodiversity loss, but their combined
effects are still unclear. Reforestation may compensate or reduce climate change impacts on …

Abstract Protected Areas (PAs) are the cornerstone of biodiversity conservation. Here, we
collated distributional data for> 14,000 (~ 70% of) species of amphibians and reptiles …

The rapid global decline of amphibian population is alarming because many occur for
apparently unknown or enigmatic reasons, even inside protected areas (PAs). Some studies …

Given their physiological requirements, limited dispersal abilities, and hydrologically
sensitive habitats, amphibians are likely to be highly sensitive to future climatic changes. We …

Habitat loss is the most important cause of species extinction worldwide that can act as a
catalyst of biological invasions. To prevent species extinction, in-situ conservation strategies …

Despite wide evidence of a quickly changing world, systematic conservation planning
analyses are usually static assuming that the biodiversity being preserved in sites do not …

Climate change is driving shifts in the distribution of plants and animals, and prioritizing
management actions for such shifts is a necessary but technically difficult challenge. We …
