The evolutionary genomics of species' responses to climate change

JA Aguirre-Liguori, S Ramírez-Barahona… - Nature Ecology & …, 2021 - nature.com
Climate change is a threat to biodiversity. One way that this threat manifests is through
pronounced shifts in the geographical range of species over time. To predict these shifts …

Are species' range limits simply niche limits writ large? A review of transplant experiments beyond the range

AL Hargreaves, KE Samis… - The American …, 2014 - journals.uchicago.edu
Many species' range limits (RL) occur across continuous environmental gradients without
obvious barriers imposing them. Such RL are expected to reflect niche limits (NL) and thus …

Genetic variation across species' geographical ranges: the central–marginal hypothesis and beyond
