Biodiversity is under threat worldwide. Over the past decade, the field of population
genomics has developed across nonmodel organisms, and the results of this research have …

Conservation managers typically need to make prompt decisions based on limited
information and resources. Consequently, generalisations have essential roles in guiding …

Major ecological realignments are already occurring in response to climate change. To be
successful, conservation strategies now need to account for geographical patterns in traits …

In recent years, scientists have realized that evolution can occur on timescales much shorter
than the" long lapse of ages" emphasized by Darwin—in fact, evolutionary change is …

Evolutionary rescue occurs when adaptive evolutionary change restores positive growth to
declining populations and prevents extinction. Here we outline the diagnostic features of …

Climate is a critical driver of many fish populations, assemblages, and aquatic communities.
However, direct observational studies of climate change impacts on North American inland …

Extinction‐risk assessments play a major role in prioritizing conservation action at national
and international levels. However, quantifying extinction risk is challenging, especially when …

Climate change impacts on vertebrates have consequences for marine ecosystem structures
and services. We review marine fish, mammal, turtle, and seabird responses to climate …

The rapid rate of current global climate change is having strong effects on many species
and, at least in some cases, is driving evolution, particularly when changes in conditions …

Rapid environmental change makes adaptive potential—the capacity of populations to
evolve genetically based changes in response to selection—more important than ever for …
