Introduction: Biodiversity and biodiversity-based ecosystems services are intrinsically
dependent on the climate. During the twentieth century, climate change has posed major …

The effects of climate change on biodiversity are increasingly well documented, and many
methods have been developed to assess species' vulnerability to climatic changes, both …

Joint species distribution modelling (JSDM) is a fast-developing field and promises to
revolutionise how data on ecological communities are analysed and interpreted. Written for …

The reasons for concern framework communicates scientific understanding about risks in
relation to varying levels of climate change. The framework, now a cornerstone of the IPCC …

Current predictions of extinction risks from climate change vary widely depending on the
specific assumptions and geographic and taxonomic focus of each study. I synthesized …

This book explores the geography, ecology, and antiquity of'open ecosystems', which
include grasslands, savannas, and shrublands. They occur in climates that can support …

This book provides a first synthetic view of an emerging area of ecology and biogeography,
linking individual-and population-level processes to geographic distributions and …

Climate change over the past∼ 30 years has produced numerous shifts in the distributions
and abundances of species 1, 2 and has been implicated in one species-level extinction 3 …

Modelling strategies for predicting the potential impacts of climate change on the natural
distribution of species have often focused on the characterization of a species' bioclimate …

Agricultural yields strongly depend on crop protection measures. The main purpose of
pesticide use is to increase food security, with a secondary goal being increased standard of …
