animals in the history of life on Earth. With high metabolic demands and large populations …

Genetic time‐series data from historical samples greatly facilitate inference of past
population dynamics and species evolution. Yet, although climate and landscape change …

The Arctic is one of the fastest-changing parts of the planet. Global climate change is already
having major impacts on Arctic ecosystems. Increasing temperatures and reductions in sea …

Runs of homozygosity (ROH) occur when offspring inherit haplotypes that are identical by
descent from each parent. Length distributions of ROH are informative about population …

The Columbia River and its tributaries provide essential spawning and rearing habitat for
many salmonid species, including Chinook salmon (Oncorhynchus tshawytscha). Chinook …

Although most ancient DNA studies have focused on the last 50,000 years, paleogenomic
approaches can now reach into the early Pleistocene, an epoch of repeated environmental …

The Arctic is warming at an unprecedented rate, with unknown consequences for endemic
fauna. However, Earth has experienced severe climatic oscillations in the past, and …

Location Circumpolar Arctic. Methods A total of 2115 biologging devices were deployed on …

Global climate change during the Late Pleistocene periodically encroached and then
released habitat during the glacial cycles, causing range expansions and contractions in …

Global warming is affecting the population dynamics and trophic interactions across a wide
range of ecosystems and habitats. Translating these real‐time effects into their long‐term …
