Resistance surfaces are often used to fill gaps in our knowledge surrounding animal
movement and are frequently the basis for modeling connectivity associated with …

Dispersal is a central process in ecology and evolution. It strongly influences the dynamics
of spatially structured populations and affects evolutionary processes by shaping patterns of …

Microclimatic variables are necessary for a wide range of pure and applied problems in
environmental science. In ecology, microclimatic conditions are prerequisites for modelling …

The regulation of body temperature (thermoregulation) and of water balance (defined here
as hydroregulation) are key processes underlying ecological and evolutionary responses to …

Human activities often replace native forests with warmer, modified habitats that represent
novel thermal environments for biodiversity. Reducing biodiversity loss hinges upon …

Ectotherm thermal physiology is frequently used to predict species responses to changing
climates, but for amphibians, water loss may be of equal or greater importance. Using …

Land‐cover and climate change are both expected to alter species distributions and
contribute to future biodiversity loss. However, the combined effects of land‐cover and …

Both genetic cohesion among local populations of animals and range expansion depend on
the frequency of dispersers moving at an interpatch scale. Animal movement has an …

The ecological processes that are crucial to an animal's growth, survival, and reproductive
fitness have energetic costs. The imperative for an animal to meet these costs within the …

Climate change and habitat modification both alter thermal environments and species
distributions. However, these drivers of global change are rarely studied together, even …
