Butterflies and moths (Lepidoptera) are one of the most studied, diverse, and widespread
animal groups, making them an ideal model for climate change research. They are a …

Declines in European bird populations are reported for decades but the direct effect of major
anthropogenic pressures on such declines remains unquantified. Causal relationships …

The lack of long-term monitoring data for many wildlife populations is a limiting factor in
establishing meaningful and achievable conservation goals. Even for well-monitored …

Species abundances and distributions are changing in response to changing climate and
other anthropogenic drivers but how this translates into how well species can match their …

Detecting biodiversity change and identifying its causes is challenging because biodiversity
is multifaceted and temporal data often contain bias. Here, we model temporal change in …

The loss of open habitats in Europe has led to severe declines in birds associated with these
habitats. However, certain ecological disturbances reverse the trend towards afforestation …

Aim Migratory species rely on multiple ranges across the annual cycle, rendering them
vulnerable to a wide range of spatially disparate anthropogenic threats. The spatial …

Changes in climate can alter environmental conditions faster than most species can adapt. A
prediction under a warming climate is that species will shift their distributions poleward …

Identifying when and where organisms are exposed to anthropogenic change is crucial for
diagnosing the drivers of biodiversity declines and implementing effective conservation …

Climate change is having profound effects on the distributions of species globally. Trait-
based assessments predict that specialist and range-restricted species are among those …
