The distribution of vegetation is routinely used to classify climate regions worldwide, yet whether these regions are relevant to other organisms is unknown. Researchers have established climate ...

Savannas play a significant socioeconomic role in regulating net primary productivity and the terrestrial carbon cycle. Mapping the spatial distribution and extent of existing temperate savannas is ...

In previous research, it has been assumed that insects in temperate regions would cope well with or even benefit from a warmer climate. Not so, according to researchers. The earlier models failed to ...

Diversity and Distributions, Vol. 26, No. 9 (September 2020), pp. 1211-1226 (16 pages) Aim: Identify climate change impacts on spawning and settlement of a tropical herbivore (Tripneustes), optimal ...

Aim: Knowledge about suitable ecological conditions for tree species remains largely incomplete. We aim to quantify and compare suitable environmental conditions for some of the most common tree ...

Much of the conservation and climate change spotlight falls on tropical forests. Given this, people might forget that forests in the temperate areas—those found in large parts of North America, Europe ...
