How ecological niche breadth evolves is central to adaptation and speciation and has been
a topic of perennial interest. Niche breadth evolution research has occurred within …

Ecology Letters (2012) 15: 365–377 Abstract Many studies in recent years have investigated
the effects of climate change on the future of biodiversity. In this review, we first examine the …

Biochar is a carbon‐rich coproduct resulting from pyrolyzing biomass. When applied to the
soil it resists decomposition, effectively sequestering the applied carbon and mitigating …

Mangroves are species of halophytic intertidal trees and shrubs derived from tropical genera
and are likely delimited in latitudinal range by varying sensitivity to cold. There is now …

Prediction of species' distributions is central to diverse applications in ecology, evolution and
conservation science. There is increasing electronic access to vast sets of occurrence …

Climate change over the past∼ 30 years has produced numerous shifts in the distributions
and abundances of species 1, 2 and has been implicated in one species-level extinction 3 …

In the last two decades, interest in species distribution models (SDMs) of plants and animals
has grown dramatically. Recent advances in SDMs allow us to potentially forecast …

Modelling strategies for predicting the potential impacts of climate change on the natural
distribution of species have often focused on the characterization of a species' bioclimate …

Tree species are expected to track warming climate by shifting their ranges to higher
latitudes or elevations, but current evidence of latitudinal range shifts for suites of species is …

As the rate and magnitude of climate change accelerate, understanding the consequences
becomes increasingly important. Species distribution models (SDMs) based on current …
