Connectivity underpins the persistence of life; it needs to inform biodiversity conservation
decisions. Yet, when prioritising conservation areas and developing actions, connectivity is …

Populations of many species are genetically adapted to local historical climate conditions.
Yet most forecasts of species' distributions under climate change have ignored local …

In recent years, scientists have realized that evolution can occur on timescales much shorter
than the" long lapse of ages" emphasized by Darwin—in fact, evolutionary change is …

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 …

BACKGROUND As global climate change accelerates, one of the most urgent tasks for the
coming decades is to develop accurate predictions about biological responses to guide the …

Understanding and predicting the ecological consequences of different management
alternatives is becoming increasingly important to support environmental management …

Based on the sensitivity of species to ongoing climate change, and numerous challenges
they face tracking suitable conditions, there is growing interest in species' capacity to adapt …

We urgently need to predict species responses to climate change to minimize future
biodiversity loss and ensure we do not waste limited resources on ineffective conservation …

Habitat fragmentation, an important element of current global change, has profound
repercussions on population and species extinction. Landscape fragmentation reduces …

Dispersal is fundamental to ecological processes at all scales and levels of organization, but
progress is limited by a lack of information about the general shape and form of plant …
