Rapid climate change is likely to impose strong selection pressures on traits important for
fitness, and therefore, microevolution in response to climate‐mediated selection is …

Recent shifts in phenology in response to climate change are well established but often
poorly understood. Many animals integrate climate change across a spatially and temporally …

Recent rapid climatic changes are associated with dramatic changes in phenology of plants
and animals, with optimal timing of reproduction advancing considerably in the northern …

Many studies have reported statistically significant associations between bird migratory
phenology and climatic variables, and, consequently, it is mostly accepted that recent shifts …

Environmental change can shift the phenotype of an organism through either evolutionary or
nongenetic processes. Despite abundant evidence of phenotypic change in response to …

Seasonal recurrence of biological processes (phenology) and its relationship to
environmental change is recognized as being of key scientific and public concern, but its …

Shifts in phenology and distribution in response to both recent and paleontological climate
changes vary markedly in both direction and extent among species. These individualistic …

In the course of the 20th century, migratory birds have shown rapid phenological changes in
response to climate change. However, the spatial variability of phenological changes, as …

The role of sexual selection in adaptation is disputed. A balance between sexual and
viability selection can be achieved in stable environments, but environmental perturbations …

'Conservation behaviour'is a young discipline that investigates how proximate and ultimate
aspects of the behaviour of an animal can be of value in preventing the loss of biodiversity …
