We synthesize insights from current understanding of drought impacts at stand‐to‐
biogeographic scales, including management options, and we identify challenges to be …

Evolutionary responses are required for tree populations to be able to track climate change.
Results of 250 years of common garden experiments show that most forest trees have …

A plethora of different theories, models, and concepts make up the field of community
ecology. Amid this vast body of work, is it possible to build one general theory of ecological …

Canadian boreal woodlands and forests cover approximately 3.09× 106 km2, located within
a larger boreal zone characterized by cool summers and long cold winters. Warming since …

Climate change is predicted to become a major threat to biodiversity in the 21st century, but
accurate predictions and effective solutions have proved difficult to formulate. Alarming …

Refugia have long been studied from paleontological and biogeographical perspectives to
understand how populations persisted during past periods of unfavorable climate. Recently …

The ranges of plants and animals are moving in response to recent changes in climate. As
temperatures rise, ecosystems with 'nowhere to go', such as mountains, are considered to …

Climate refugia, locations where taxa survive periods of regionally adverse climate, are
thought to be critical for maintaining biodiversity through the glacial–interglacial climate …

• Premise of the study: Near‐future climate changes are likely to elicit major vegetation
changes. Disequilibrium dynamics, which occur when vegetation comes out of equilibrium …

There is compelling evidence from glacial and interglacial periods of the Quaternary of the
utilization of microrefugia. Microrefugia are sites that support locally favorable climates …
