In recent years, the use of ecological niche models (ENMs) and species distribution models
(SDMs) to explore the patterns and processes behind observed distribution of species has …

In coastal waters around the world, the dominant primary producers are benthic
macrophytes, including seagrasses and macroalgae, that provide habitat structure and food …

Motivation The availability of user‐friendly, high‐resolution global environmental datasets is
crucial for bioclimatic modelling. For terrestrial environments, WorldClim has served this …

Aim Macroalgal habitats are believed to be the most extensive and productive of all coastal
vegetated ecosystems. In stark contrast to the growing attention on their contribution to …

Macroalgae have played an important role in coastal communities for centuries. In the past,
they have been harvested and gathered from shorelines around the world for traditional …

Intraspecific genetic variability is critical for species adaptation and evolution and yet it is
generally overlooked in projections of the biological consequences of climate change. We …

Seaweed assemblages represent the dominant autotrophic biomass in many coastal
environments, playing a central structural and functional role in several ecosystems. In …

Aim Marine forests of brown macroalgae create essential habitats for coastal species and
support invaluable ecological services. Here, we provide the first global analysis of species …

The paradigm of past climate-driven range shifts structuring the distribution of marine
intraspecific biodiversity lacks replication in biological models exposed to comparable …

Species distribution records are a prerequisite to follow climate-induced range shifts across
space and time. However, synthesizing information from various sources such as peer …
