Improvements in reports of species redistribution under climate change are required
Studies have documented climate change–induced shifts in species distributions but
uncertainties associated with data and methods are typically unexplored. We reviewed 240 …

Species better track climate warming in the oceans than on land
There is mounting evidence of species redistribution as climate warms. Yet, our knowledge
of the coupling between species range shifts and isotherm shifts remains limited. Here, we …

The need for stewardship of lands exposed by deglaciation from climate change
Alpine glaciers worldwide will lose most of their volume by the end of the 21st century,
placing alpine ecosystems and human populations at risk. The new lands that emerge from …

Land-use change interacts with climate to determine elevational species redistribution
Climate change is driving global species redistribution with profound social and economic
impacts. However, species movement is largely constrained by habitat availability and …

Climate warming as a driver of tundra shrubline advance
Climate warming is predicted to alter ecological boundaries in high‐latitude ecosystems
including the elevational or latitudinal extent of tall shrubs in Arctic and alpine tundra. Over …

High resolution ancient sedimentary DNA shows that alpine plant diversity is associated with human land use and climate change
Abstract The European Alps are highly rich in species, but their future may be threatened by
ongoing changes in human land use and climate. Here, we reconstructed vegetation …

Early evidence of shifts in alpine summit vegetation: a case study from Kashmir Himalaya
Under the contemporary climate change, the Himalaya is reported to be warming at a much
higher rate than the global average. However, little is known about the alpine vegetation …

Identifying the driving factors behind observed elevational range shifts on E uropean mountains
Aim In recent decades species ranges have shifted upwards in elevation and northwards in
latitude. These shifts are commonly interpreted as a response to recent climate warming …
