The future of hyperdiverse tropical ecosystems
The tropics contain the overwhelming majority of Earth's biodiversity: their terrestrial,
freshwater and marine ecosystems hold more than three-quarters of all species, including …

How should beta-diversity inform biodiversity conservation?
To design robust protected area networks, accurately measure species losses, or
understand the processes that maintain species diversity, conservation science must …

Changing state of the climate system
2 Chapter 2 assesses observed large-scale changes in climate system drivers, key climate
indicators and 3 principal modes of variability. Chapter 3 considers model performance and …

Species better track climate warming in the oceans than on land
There is mounting evidence of species redistribution as climate warms. Yet, our knowledge
of the coupling between species range shifts and isotherm shifts remains limited. Here, we …

Local colonisations and extinctions of European birds are poorly explained by changes in climate suitability
Climate change has been associated with both latitudinal and elevational shifts in species'
ranges. The extent, however, to which climate change has driven recent range shifts …

Adaptive responses of animals to climate change are most likely insufficient
Biological responses to climate change have been widely documented across taxa and
regions, but it remains unclear whether species are maintaining a good match between …

Climate‐related range shifts–a global multidimensional synthesis and new research directions
J Lenoir, JC Svenning - Ecography, 2015 - Wiley Online Library
Poleward and upward shifts are the most frequent types of range shifts that have been
reported in response to contemporary climate change. However, the number of reports …
