Populations of many species are genetically adapted to local historical climate conditions.
Yet most forecasts of species' distributions under climate change have ignored local …

Climate change is occurring at an unprecedented rate and has begun to modify the
distribution and phenology of organisms worldwide. Chelonians are expected to be …

Unique body characteristics are increasingly used for individual recognition to avoid the
effort and the potential negative effects of capture–mark–recapture technique. As a …

Climate change affects seasonal weather patterns, but little is known about the relative
importance of seasonal weather patterns on animal population vital rates. Even when such …

Assessing population trends is a basic prerequisite to carrying out adequate conservation
strategies. Selecting an appropriate method to monitor animal populations can be …

The most recent climate change projections show a global increase in temperatures along
with precipitation changes throughout the 21st century. However, regional projections do not …

Wildfires are common disturbances that have a major impact on ecosystems. Recent
decades have seen an increase in fire frequency and extension due to the combined effects …

Anthropogenic climate change is predicted to increase the variation in storm patterns in
some areas in the coming decades. This variation in mean rainfall and increase in mean …

Adult mortality is often the most sensitive vital rate affecting at‐risk wildlife populations.
Therefore, road ecology studies often focus on adult mortality despite the possibility for …

It is difficult to obtain evidence of population trends for some animals due to their elusive
