Climate-driven shifts in marine species ranges: scaling from organisms to communities
The geographic distributions of marine species are changing rapidly, with leading range
edges following climate poleward, deeper, and in other directions and trailing range edges …

Biotic interactions are more often important at species' warm versus cool range edges
A Paquette, AL Hargreaves - Ecology Letters, 2021 - Wiley Online Library
Predicting which ecological factors constrain species distributions is a fundamental
ecological question and critical to forecasting geographic responses to global change …

Expanding, shifting and shrinking: The impact of global warming on species' elevational distributions
Aim Species are responding to climate warming by shifting their distributions toward
historically cooler regions, but the degree to which expansions at cool range limits are …

Why are species' traits weak predictors of range shifts?
SR Beissinger, EA Riddell - Annual Review of Ecology …, 2021 - annualreviews.org
We examine the evidence linking species' traits to contemporary range shifts and find they
are poor predictors of range shifts that have occurred over decades to a century. We then …

Defining and observing stages of climate-mediated range shifts in marine systems
Climate change is transforming the structure of biological communities through the
geographic extension and contraction of species' ranges. Range edges are naturally …

Losing your edge: climate change and the conservation value of range‐edge populations
Populations occurring at species' range edges can be locally adapted to unique
environmental conditions. From a species' perspective, range‐edge environments generally …

Climate change‐induced vegetation shifts lead to more ecological droughts despite projected rainfall increases in many global temperate drylands
Drylands occur worldwide and are particularly vulnerable to climate change because
dryland ecosystems depend directly on soil water availability that may become increasingly …

Spatial phylogenetics of the native California flora
Background California is a world floristic biodiversity hotspot where the terms neo-and paleo-
endemism were first applied. Using spatial phylogenetics, it is now possible to evaluate …
