Butterflies and moths (Lepidoptera) are one of the most studied, diverse, and widespread
animal groups, making them an ideal model for climate change research. They are a …

Trait‐based approaches are increasingly being used to test mechanisms underlying species
assemblages and biotic interactions across a wide range of organisms including terrestrial …

Ziziphus jujuba has high ecological and economic value and is widely distributed in
northern China. Reconstructing the historical geographic distribution patterns of Z. jujuba …

Shifts in phenology are already resulting in disruptions to the timing of migration and
breeding, and asynchronies between interacting species,,,–. Recent syntheses have …

Highlights•Climate change can alter insect phenology in complex and counterintuitive
ways.•Advances in springtime phenology with warming are widespread but not …

Plant–herbivore interactions have evolved in response to coevolutionary dynamics, along
with selection driven by abiotic conditions. We examine how abiotic factors influence trait …

Climate change triggers poleward shifts in species distribution leading to changes in
biogeography. In the marine environment, fish respond quickly to warming, causing …

Species across a wide range of taxa and habitats are shifting phenological events in
response to climate change. While advances are common, shifts vary in magnitude and …

Winter is a key driver of individual performance, community composition, and ecological
interactions in terrestrial habitats. Although climate change research tends to focus on …

In focusing on how organisms' generalizable functional properties (traits) interact
mechanistically with environments across spatial scales and levels of biological …
