The Anatomical Record, EarlyView.Abstract The Pleistocene is a key period for understanding the evolutionary history and palaeobiogeography of the European rabbit (Oryctolagus cuniculus). The species was first documented in southeastern Iberia at the beginning of the Middle Pleistocene and appears to have rapidly spread throughout Southwestern Europe, where it was found in numerous ...

Biological Reviews, EarlyView.ABSTRACT During their long evolutionary history, land plants have evolved a range of adaptations to different abiotic stressors. These help explain present‐day diversity and distribution patterns, as well as the potential resilience of natural and agricultural systems to a changing climate. Most previous research has focused on adaptation to individual

The projected risk of plant invasions on the peri‐Antarctic islands under climate change
Ecography, EarlyView.The peri‐Antarctic islands have largely been shielded from alien plant species due to low human pressure, limited introduction pathways, and local harsh climates. However, climate change is expected to lower these barriers. We assess the vulnerability of 12 peri‐Antarctic islands to invasion by 2220 plant species invasive in at least one region of the ...

High spatial resolution bioclimatic variables of Sardinia
, 2020 We generated a high-resolution suite of 19 bioclimatic variables of Sardinia of the suite of the original coarse-grain bioclimatic variables proposed by WorldClim 2: all rasters are provided at roughly 1.69 arcsec (40 m cell size) resolution and in the ...

Modeling climate adaptive habitat connectivity for conservation planning in Colombia
Ecography, EarlyView.To remain effective under global change, conservation decisions must anticipate shifting climates, species responses to climate change and the dispersal pathways needed to track suitable climate. Yet most assessments of ecological connectivity do not consider how the landscape will change, or, if they do, they only consider a single future time point ...

iMetaOmics, EarlyView.Natural populations of Marchantia polymorpha sampled across contrasting climatic regions show clear geographic differentiation between Europe and Japan based on polymorphic short tandem repeat (STR) variation. Genome‐wide association (GWAS) analyses identified pSTR loci whose repeat‐length variation tracks temperature‐related WorldClim variables.

The contribution of vegetation and landscape configuration for predicting environmental change impacts on Iberian birds [PDF]
, 2011 Although climate is known to be one of the key factors determining animal species distributions amongst others, projections of global change impacts on their distributions often rely on bioclimatic envelope models.

International Journal of Climatology, EarlyView.Four decades of UTCI data show increasing thermal stress along Ghana's coastal‐urban corridor, with very strong heat‐stress days rising by about 1.4 days/year. Random Forest–SHAP analysis with temporal validation identified AOD as the strongest model‐based predictor of monthly UTCI variability, followed by TSA, WHWP, and AMO.
