Climate change and habitat loss are both key threatening processes driving the global loss
in biodiversity. Yet little is known about their synergistic effects on biological populations due …

Many studies have described the effects of urbanization on species richness. These studies
indicate that urbanization can increase or decrease species richness, depending on several …

Habitat loss has pervasive and disruptive impacts on biodiversity in habitat remnants. The
magnitude of the ecological impacts of habitat loss can be exacerbated by the spatial …

Urbanisation has an important impact on biodiversity, mostly driving changes in species
assemblages, through the replacement of specialist with generalist species, thus leading to …

Potential impacts of projected climate change on biodiversity are often assessed using
single-species bioclimatic 'envelope'models. Such models are a special case of species …

The first expected symptoms of a climate change‐generated biodiversity crisis are range
contractions and extinctions at lower elevational and latitudinal limits to species …

Publisher Summary This chapter discusses the modern ecological and evolutionary contexts
of the evolutionary physiology in insects and provides a survey of sources of environmental …

The geographic ranges of many species have shifted polewards and uphill in elevation
associated with climate warming, leading to increases in species richness at high latitudes …

Projected changes in biodiversity are likely inadequately estimated when climate and land-
use change effects are examined in isolation. A review of studies of the effects of these …

Calcareous grasslands are diversity hotspots for plant and butterfly species in Europe, but
connectivity of these grasslands has been reduced by habitat loss and fragmentation in …
