A core challenge in global change biology is to predict how species will respond to future
environmental change and to manage these responses. To make such predictions and …

Research in global change ecology relies heavily on global climatic grids derived from
estimates of air temperature in open areas at around 2 m above the ground. These climatic …

Ecological research heavily relies on coarse‐gridded climate data based on standardized
temperature measurements recorded at 2 m height in open landscapes. However, many …

To tackle urban overheating induced by the combined effect of global warming and intensive
urbanization, researchers have recommended assimilating microclimate-related strategies …

Current climate change aggravates human health hazards posed by heat stress. Forests can
locally mitigate this by acting as strong thermal buffers, yet potential mediation by forest …

Species distributions are conventionally modelled using coarse‐grained macroclimate data
measured in open areas, potentially leading to biased predictions since most terrestrial …

Forests harbour large spatiotemporal heterogeneity in canopy structure. This variation drives
the microclimate and light availability at the forest floor. So far, we do not know how light …

Most statistical models of microclimate focus on the difference or 'offset'between
standardized air temperatures (macroclimate) and those of a specific habitat such as forest …

Map** the microclimate effect of forest canopies on understory temperature requires
spatially explicit predictors at very fine spatial resolutions. Light Detection And Ranging …

High-resolution microclimate data is essential for capturing spatio-temporal heterogeneity of
urban climate and heat health management. However, previous studies have relied on …
