Climate change is driving changes in the physical and chemical properties of the ocean that
have consequences for marine ecosystems. Here, we review evidence for the responses of …

The physical and ecological 'fingerprints' of anthropogenic climate change over the past
century are now well documented in many environments and taxa. We reviewed the …

Human activities are fundamentally altering biodiversity. Projections of declines at the global
scale are contrasted by highly variable trends at local scales, suggesting that biodiversity …

Scientists disagree about the nature of biodiversity change. While there is evidence for
widespread declines from population surveys, assemblage surveys reveal a mix of declines …

Abstract Motivation The BioTIME database contains raw data on species identities and
abundances in ecological assemblages through time. These data enable users to calculate …

Accumulating evidence suggests that the average body size of many organisms is declining
in response to climate warming. This phenomenon has been suggested to represent a …

Biotic responses to global change include directional shifts in organismal traits. Body size,
an integrative trait that determines demographic rates and ecosystem functions, is thought to …

Physiological studies contribute to a cause and effect understanding of ecological patterns
under climate change and identify the scope and limits of adaptation. Across most habitats …

In several species genetic differentiation across environmental gradients or between
geographically separate populations has been reported to center at “genomic islands of …
