Although different predictive models forecast that climate change will alter the distribution
and incidence of parasitic diseases, few studies have investigated how microclimatic …

In light of global climate change, there is a pressing need to understand how populations
will respond to rising temperatures. Understanding the effects of temperature changes on …

Abstract Context Species distribution models (SDMs) may provide accurate predictions of
species occurrence across space and time, being critical for effective conservation planning …

The Little Bustard Tetrax tetrax is an iconic species and an indicator of healthy grassland
and farmland ecosystems. It formerly ranged almost continuously from north-western Africa …

Elevated temperatures can have a range of fitness impacts, including high metabolic cost of
thermoregulation, hence access to microclimate refugia may buffer individuals against …

The potential for climate change to affect animal behaviour is widely recognized, yet its
possible consequences on aggressiveness are still unclear. If warming and drought limit the …

Monitoring programs are key to determine bird population trends and to assess
environmental policies, and therefore are central to conservation biology. The European …

Over the last two decades, monitoring of and research into the little bustard was carried out
mainly in western Europe, and has enabled the identification of important threats to the …

Los dispositivos de localización que incorporan tecnologías de Sistema de Posicionamiento
