Climate change and habitat loss are both key threatening processes driving the global loss
in biodiversity. Yet little is known about their synergistic effects on biological populations due …

Habitat loss is the greatest threat to biodiversity and rapid, human-forced climate change is
likely to exacerbate this. Here we present the first global assessment of current and potential …

Large changes in biodiversity are expected to occur if climate change continues at its current
pace. Adverse effects include changes in species habitats and compositions, and …

Aim The impact of multiple stressors on biodiversity is one of the most pressing questions in
ecology and biodiversity conservation. Here we critically assess how often and efficiently …

Current knowledge of effects of climate change on biodiversity is briefly reviewed, and
results are presented of a survey of biological research groups in the Netherlands, aimed at …

Over the past twelve years the number of papers that explore the impacts of climate change
on biodiversity in the conservation literature has grown on average by 20% annually. By …

Climate change and land-cover change will have major impacts on biodiversity persistence
worldwide. These two stressors are likely to interact, but how climate change will mediate …

Climate change and land use change often interact, altering biodiversity in unexpected
ways. Research into climate change–land use change (CC–LUC) interactions has so far …

Anthropogenic climate change is predicted to be a major cause of species extinctions in the
next 100 years. But what will actually cause these extinctions? For example, will it be limited …

Background Among the most widely predicted climate change-related impacts to biodiversity
are geographic range shifts, whereby species shift their spatial distribution to track their …
