Climate change and human–wildlife conflict are both pressing challenges for biodiversity conservation and human well-being in the Anthropocene. Climate change is a critical yet …
Comprehensive assessments of species' extinction risks have documented the extinction crisis 1 and underpinned strategies for reducing those risks 2. Global assessments reveal …
As anthropogenic climate change continues the risks to biodiversity will increase over time, with future projections indicating that a potentially catastrophic loss of global biodiversity is …
Understanding how species' thermal limits have evolved across the tree of life is central to predicting species' responses to climate change. Here, using experimentally-derived …
The global‐scale decline of animal biodiversity ('defaunation') represents one of the most alarming consequences of human impacts on the planet. The quantification of this extinction …
Understanding which species and ecosystems will be most severely affected by warming as climate change advances is important for guiding conservation and management. Both …
The frequency, duration, and intensity of extreme thermal events are increasing and are projected to further increase by the end of the century,. Despite the considerable …
Climate change may be a major threat to biodiversity in the next 100 years. Although there has been important work on mechanisms of decline in some species, it generally remains …
