Advances in breeding phenology outpace latitudinal and elevational shifts for North American birds tracking temperature
MHC Neate-Clegg, BA Tonelli… - Nature Ecology & Evolution, 2024 - nature.com
Terrestrial species can respond to a warming climate in multiple ways, including shifting in
space (via latitude or elevation) and time (via phenology). Evidence for such shifts is often …

Recent range shifts of moths, butterflies, and birds are driven by the breadth of their climatic niche
Species are altering their ranges as a response to climate change, but the magnitude and
direction of observed range shifts vary considerably among species. The ability to persist in …

Century-long butterfly range expansions in northern Europe depend on climate, land use and species traits
Climate change is an important driver of range shifts and community composition changes.
