Biogeographical and evolutionary importance of the European high mountain systems
T Schmitt - Frontiers in zoology, 2009 - Springer
Europe is characterised by several high mountain systems dominating major parts of its
area, and these structures have strongly influenced the evolution of taxa. For species now …

Postglacial migration supplements climate in determining plant species ranges in Europe
The influence of dispersal limitation on species ranges remains controversial. Considering
the dramatic impacts of the last glaciation in Europe, species might not have tracked climate …

Genetic consequences of climate change for northern plants
Climate change will lead to loss of range for many species, and thus to loss of genetic
diversity crucial for their long-term persistence. We analysed range-wide genetic diversity …

The role of glacial cycles in promoting genetic diversity in the Neotropics: the case of cloud forests during the Last Glacial Maximum
S Ramírez‐Barahona, LE Eguiarte - Ecology and evolution, 2013 - Wiley Online Library
The increasing aridity during the Last Glacial Maximum (LGM) has been proposed as a
major factor affecting Neotropical species. The character and intensity of this change …

Shift happens: trailing edge contraction associated with recent warming trends threatens a distinct genetic lineage in the marine macroalga Fucus vesiculosus
Background Significant effects of recent global climate change have already been observed
in a variety of ecosystems, with evidence for shifts in species ranges, but rarely have such …
