ABSTRACT A fundamental goal of ecological research is to understand and model how
processes generate patterns so that if conditions change, changes in the patterns can be …

Climate change probably has severe impacts on animal populations, but demonstrating a
causal link can be difficult because of potential influences by additional factors. Assessing …

Abstract Protected Areas (PAs) are the cornerstone of biodiversity conservation. Here, we
collated distributional data for> 14,000 (~ 70% of) species of amphibians and reptiles …

Aim To assess the future climatic suitability of European catchments for freshwater species
and the future utility of the current network of protected areas. Location Europe. Methods …

Abstract Only 7% of the Atlantic Forest Biodiversity Hotspot is currently protected, though it
holds 18% of all amphibian species in South America. How effective would the Atlantic …

Many studies predict that climate change will cause species movement and turnover, but few
have considered the effect of climate change on range fragmentation for current species …

Scientists still poorly understand how biotic interactions and dispersal limitation jointly
interact and affect the ability of species to track suitable habitats under climate change. Here …

Being the largest extant amphibian in the world, the IUCN Critically Endangered Chinese
giant salamander Andrias davidianus is a charismatic species with great international public …

Aim We address the unexplored question of whether the lack of information on intra‐specific
diversity inherent in species‐level niche modelling might bias evaluation of the conservation …

Climate changes impose requirements for many species to shift their ranges to remain within
environmentally tolerable areas, but near‐continuous regions of intense human land use …
