Species' traits as predictors of range shifts under contemporary climate change: A review and meta‐analysis
A growing body of literature seeks to explain variation in range shifts using species'
ecological and life‐history traits, with expectations that shifts should be greater in species …

Achieving climate connectivity in a fragmented landscape
The contiguous United States contains a disconnected patchwork of natural lands. This
fragmentation by human activities limits species' ability to track suitable climates as they …

Connectivity for species on the move: supporting climate‐driven range shifts
Many species are already responding to global climate change by shifting their ranges to
track suitable climatic conditions. However, habitat loss and fragmentation, coupled with the …
