Noninvasive genetic approaches continue to improve studies in molecular ecology,
conservation genetics and related disciplines such as forensics and epidemiology …

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

We urgently need to predict species responses to climate change to minimize future
biodiversity loss and ensure we do not waste limited resources on ineffective conservation …

Intraspecific genetic variability is critical for species adaptation and evolution and yet it is
generally overlooked in projections of the biological consequences of climate change. We …

Landscape connectivity is increasingly promoted as a conservation tool to combat the
negative effects of habitat loss, fragmentation, and climate change. Given its importance as a …

Empirical studies and habitat suitability modeling project significant shifts in species
distributions in response to climate change. Because habitat fragmentation can impede …

Increasing documentation of changes in the distribution of species provides evidence of
climate change impacts, yet surprisingly little empirical work has endeavoured to quantify …

Rupestrian grasslands are biodiverse, evolutionary old vegetation complexes that harbor
more than 5000 species of vascular plants and one of the highest levels of plant endemism …

Aim Past climate‐driven range shifts shaped intraspecific diversities of species world‐wide.
Earlier studies, focused on glacial refugia, might have overlooked genetic erosion at lower …

Global climate change is predicted to result in the decline and/or extinction of a large
number of animal populations worldwide, and the risk of extinction is likely to be greatest for …
