How does climate change cause extinction?
AE Cahill, ME Aiello-Lammens… - … of the Royal …, 2013 - royalsocietypublishing.org
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 …

Where and when do species interactions set range limits?
A long-standing theory, originating with Darwin, suggests that abiotic forces set species
range limits at high latitude, high elevation, and other abiotically 'stressful'areas, while …

Towards an urban marine ecology: characterizing the drivers, patterns and processes of marine ecosystems in coastal cities
Human population density within 100 km of the sea is approximately three times higher than
the global average. People in this zone are concentrated in coastal cities that are hubs for …

The pace of shifting climate in marine and terrestrial ecosystems
Climate change challenges organisms to adapt or move to track changes in environments in
space and time. We used two measures of thermal shifts from analyses of global …

Three decades of high-resolution coastal sea surface temperatures reveal more than warming
Understanding and forecasting current and future consequences of coastal warming require
a fine-scale assessment of the near-shore temperature changes. Here we show that despite …

Integrating within-species variation in thermal physiology into climate change ecology
Accurately forecasting the response of global biota to warming is a fundamental challenge
for ecology in the Anthropocene. Within-species variation in thermal sensitivity, caused by …

Community ecology in a warming world: the influence of temperature on interspecific interactions in marine systems
Ecological patterns are determined by the interplay between abiotic factors and interactions
among species. As the Earth's climate warms, interactions such as competition, predation …
