Introduction The standardization of sampling protocols is imperative for robustly studying
any taxonomic group. Replicable methods allow the comparison of data between different …

To forecast extinction risks of natural populations under climate change and direct human
impacts, an integrative understanding of both phenotypic plasticity and adaptive evolution is …

Several previous studies have investigated changes in insect biodiversity, with some
highlighting declines and others showing turnover in species composition without net …

Mass extinctions during the past 500 million y rapidly removed branches from the
phylogenetic tree of life and required millions of years for evolution to generate functional …

Increased efforts are required to prevent further losses to terrestrial biodiversity and the
ecosystem services that it provides,. Ambitious targets have been proposed, such as …

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 …

Climate change is already exposing species to dangerous temperatures driving widespread
population and geographical contractions. However, little is known about how these risks of …

Climate change could increase species' extinction risk as temperatures and precipitation
begin to exceed species' historically observed tolerances. Using long-term data for 66 …

Migratory freshwater fish (ie fish that use freshwater systems, either partly or exclusively)
occur around the world and travel between critical habitats to complete their life cycle. They …

Protected areas (PAs) play a pivotal role in maintaining viable populations of species and
minimizing their habitat loss. Globally, there are currently over 200,000 PAs that cover …
