Tropicalization is a term used to describe the transformation of temperate ecosystems by
poleward‐moving tropical organisms in response to warming temperatures. In North …

Butterflies and moths (Lepidoptera) are one of the most studied, diverse, and widespread
animal groups, making them an ideal model for climate change research. They are a …

There is mounting evidence of species redistribution as climate warms. Yet, our knowledge
of the coupling between species range shifts and isotherm shifts remains limited. Here, we …

Forests cover about one-third of Europe's surface and their growth is essential for climate
protection through carbon sequestration and many other economic, environmental, and …

We synthesize insights from current understanding of drought impacts at stand‐to‐
biogeographic scales, including management options, and we identify challenges to be …

Poleward and upward shifts are the most frequent types of range shifts that have been
reported in response to contemporary climate change. However, the number of reports …

Climate change is altering the distributions of species, which in turn causes shifts in the
composition of plant communities. Specifically, rising temperatures should cause increasing …

Climate change can have profound impacts on biodiversity and the sustainability of many
ecosystems. Various studies have investigated the impacts of climate change, but large …

Organisms are expected to adapt or move in response to climate change, but observed
distribution shifts span a wide range of directions and rates. Explanations often emphasize …

Predicted increases in temperature and aridity across the boreal forest region have the
potential to alter timber supply and carbon sequestration. Given the widely-observed …
