ABSTRACT A changing climate may directly or indirectly influence biological invasions by
altering the likelihood of introduction or establishment, as well as modifying the geographic …

Holocene reconstructions of relative sea-level (RSL) and environmental change in the
coastal zone have become progressively more numerous since the importance of assessing …

Current conservation policy has been shaped by the expectation that, for many species,
places with suitable climate will lie outside their current range, thus leading to predictions of …

Protecting biodiversity against the impacts of climate change requires effective conservation
strategies that safeguard species at risk of extinction. Microrefugia allowed populations to …

There is considerable concern over declines in insect pollinator communities and potential
impacts on the pollination of crops and wildflowers,,,. Among the multiple pressures facing …

For many species, human-induced environmental changes are important indirect drivers of
range expansion into new regions. We argue that it is important to distinguish the range …

Human activities such as the transport of species to new regions and modifications of the
environment are increasingly reshaping the distribution of biota. Accordingly, developing …

Over half of the world's human population lives in cities, and for many, urban greenspaces
are the only places where they encounter biodiversity. This is of particular concern because …

Despite widespread concern about declines in pollination services, little is known about the
patterns of change in most pollinator assemblages. By studying bee and hoverfly …

The number of studies dealing with plant invasions is increasing rapidly, but the
accumulating body of knowledge has unfortunately also spawned increasing confusion …
