Perspective: the responses of tropical forest species to global climate change: acclimate, adapt, migrate, or go extinct?
In the face of ongoing and future climate change, species must acclimate, adapt or shift their
geographic distributions (ie," migrate") in order to avoid habitat loss and eventual extinction …
