Implications of climate change to the design of protected areas: The case study of small islands (Azores). [PDF]

open access: yesPLoS One, 2019
Climate change is causing shifts in species distributions worldwide. Understanding how species distributions will change with future climate change is thus critical for conservation planning.

Equilibrium of global amphibian species distributions with climate. [PDF]

open access: yesPLoS One, 2012
A common assumption in bioclimatic envelope modeling is that species distributions are in equilibrium with contemporary climate. A number of studies have measured departures from equilibrium in species distributions in particular regions, but such ...

Integrating multiple lines of evidence into historical biogeography hypothesis testing: a Bison bison case study. [PDF]

open access: yesProc Biol Sci, 2014
One of the grand goals of historical biogeography is to understand how and why species’ population sizes and distributions change over time. Multiple types of data drawn from disparate fields, combined into a single modelling framework, are necessary to ...

Estrutura hierárquica na resposta das distribuições geográficas de plantas do Cerrado  s mudanças climáticas

open access: yesHeringeriana, 2014
O clima pode ser considerado um fator extremamente importante na distribuição da vegetação e suas caracterí­sticas em um contexto global. Os modelos de distribuição geográfica potencial ("spatial distribution model") são importantes ferramentas para ...

Global Patterns of Coastal Cephalopod Diversity Under Climate Change [PDF]

open access: yes, 2022
Coastal marine ecosystems are currently being exposed to climate change at a much faster rate than many other ecosystems, with coastal species being exposed to multiple stressors.

Joint ecological, geographical and cultural approach to identify territories of opportunity for large vertebrates conservation in Mexico [PDF]

open access: yes, 2017
The objective of the present paper is to provide a holistic framework to delineate ‘‘territories of opportunity’’ where agrarian communities can manage areas to enhance the conservation of large vertebrates.

Potential suitable areas of giant ground sloths dropped before its extinction in South America:the evidences from bioclimatic envelope modeling [PDF]

open access: yes, 2012
v. 10, n. 2, p. 145-151, 2012Here we analyze the effects that climatic changes through last ice age had on the potential distributions and extinction risk dynamics of two extinct species of South American giant ground sloths, Eremotherium laurillardi and
