Recently, interest in species distribution modelling has increased following the development
of new methods for the analysis of presence‐only data and the deployment of these …

The Class Amphibia is one of the most severely impacted taxa in an on-going global
biodiversity crisis. Because amphibian reproduction is tightly associated with the presence …

Ectotherms are considered to be particularly vulnerable to climate warming. Descriptions of
habitat temperatures and predicted changes in climate usually consider mean monthly …

Ecosystems provide essential services for human society, which include provisioning,
regulating, cultural, and supporting services. Amphibians provide provisioning services by …

Reduction in body size is a major response to climate change, yet evidence in globally
imperiled amphibians is lacking. Shifts in average population body size could indicate either …

Extinction rates are predicted to rise exponentially under climate warming, but many of these
predictions ignore physiological and behavioral plasticity that might buffer species from …

Habitat loss and fragmentation are among the biggest threats to amphibian populations and
anthropogenic climate change may exacerbate these. The response of Iran's amphibians to …

Anthropogenic climate change is warming global temperatures, with significant implications
for salmonid fishes that depend on the availability of cold water during one or more life …

Defining species' niches is central to understanding their distributions and is thus
fundamental to basic ecology and climate change projections. Ecological niche models …

Little is known about the current state of freshwater biodiversity in Canada, one of the
countries with the greatest amount of surface waters in the world. To address this knowledge …
