Collaborative research by networks of amateurs has had a major role in ornithology and
conservation science and will continue to do so. It has been important in establishing the …

Few studies have examined how life history traits and the climate envelope influence the
ability of species to respond to climate change and habitat degradation. In this study, we test …

Recent rapid climatic changes are associated with dramatic changes in phenology of plants
and animals, with optimal timing of reproduction advancing considerably in the northern …

Climate change is forcing the redistribution of life on Earth at an unprecedented velocity,.
