Considerable progress has been made in understanding the responses of amphibians to
climate change, with successful research carried out on climate change‐associated shifts in …

From the red grouse to the Ethiopian bush-crow, bird populations around the world can
provide us with vital insights into the effects of climate change on species and ecosystems …

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 …

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 …

Climate change probably has severe impacts on animal populations, but demonstrating a
causal link can be difficult because of potential influences by additional factors. Assessing …

Climate change has had a significant impact globally on the timing of ecological events such
as reproduction and migration in many species. Here, we examined the phenology of …

Water temperatures fluctuate in time and space, creating diverse thermal regimes on river
networks. Temporal variability in these thermal landscapes has important biological and …

Infectious diseases are intimately associated with the dynamics of biodiversity. However, the
role that infectious disease plays within ecological communities is complex. The complex …

Nest building is a taxonomically widespread and diverse trait that allows animals to alter
local environments to create optimal conditions for offspring development. However, there is …

Ecological carryover effects, or delayed effects of the environment on an organism's
phenotype, are central predictors of individual fitness and a key issue in conservation …
