Resource managers often need scientific information to match their decisions (typically short‐
term and local) to complex, long‐term, large‐scale challenges such as adaptation to climate …

To ensure the long-term persistence of biodiversity, conservation strategies must account for
the entire range of climate change impacts. A variety of spatial prioritisation techniques have …

The Anthropocene is a volatile and potentially catastrophic age demanding new ways of
thinking about relations between humans and the nonhuman world. This book explores how …

Background The central thesis of plant ecology is that climate determines the global
distribution of vegetation. Within a vegetation type, however, finer‐scale environmental …

Migrating wildlife species across the globe face a dire predicament as their traditional
migratory routes are cut off by human encroachment. Forced into smaller and smaller …

Using outlines of ten geodiversity-related topics plus some related studies, this paper argues
that geodiversity has contributed to many new insights, new avenues of research and new …

Motivated by declines in biodiversity exacerbated by climate change, we identified a network
of conservation sites designed to provide resilient habitat for species, while supporting …

Background Ocbil theory aims to develop hypotheses explaining the evolution and ecology
of, and best conservation practices for, biota on very old, climatically buffered, infertile …

As climatic conditions shift in coming decades, persistence of many populations will depend
on their ability to colonize habitat newly suitable for their climatic requirements …

Abstract Small Natural Features (SNFs) are analogous to keystone species in that they have
ecological importance that is disproportionate to their size. Thus the recognition and …
