Research on the thermal ecology and physiology of free‐living organisms is accelerating as
scientists and managers recognize the urgency of the global biodiversity crisis brought on by …

Comprehensive assessments of species' extinction risks have documented the extinction
crisis and underpinned strategies for reducing those risks. Global assessments reveal that …

Realistic predictions about the impacts of climate change onbiodiversity requires gathering
ecophysiological data and the critical thermal maxima (CTMax) is the most frequently used …

Patterns in functional diversity of organisms at large spatial scales can provide insight into
possible responses to future climate change, but it remains a challenge to link large‐scale …

Aim Until recently, complete information on global reptile distributions has not been widely
available. Here, we provide the first comprehensive climate impact assessment for reptiles …

We assessed changes in fundamental climate‐niche space for lizard and snake species in
western North America under modeled climate scenarios to inform natural resource …

Climate change is rapidly transforming environments and poses a major threat to species
and ecosystems world-wide (Bellard et al., 2012; Parmesan & Yohe, 2003). Given the …

Warming temperatures caused by climate change are predicted to vary temporally and
spatially. For mid‐and high‐latitude reptiles, the seasonal variation in warming temperatures …

An understanding of species-environmental relationships is invaluable for effective
conservation and management under anthropogenic climate change, especially for …

We assessed the current knowledge on non-avian reptile species composition in the state of
Rio de Janeiro (RJ), southeastern Brazil. We used published data in indexed journals and …
