Billions of hectares of natural ecosystems have been degraded through human actions. The
global community has agreed on targets to halt and reverse these declines, and the …

Gene flow among populations can enhance local adaptation if it introduces new genetic
variants available for selection, but strong gene flow can also stall adaptation by swam** …

Evolutionary adaptation can be rapid and potentially help species counter stressful
conditions or realize ecological opportunities arising from climate change. The challenges …

Animal and plant species around the world are being challenged by the deleterious effects
