Hybrid zones: windows on climate change [PDF]
Trends in Ecology & Evolution, 2015 Defining the impacts of anthropogenic climate change on biodiversity and species distributions is currently a high priority. Niche models focus primarily on predicted changes in abiotic factors; however, species interactions and adaptive evolution will impact the ability of species to persist in the face of changing climate.

Mapping Europe into local climate zones [PDF]
PLOS ONE, 2019 Cities are major drivers of environmental change at all scales and are especially at risk from the ensuing effects, which include poor air quality, flooding and heat waves. Typically, these issues are studied on a city-by-city basis owing to the spatial complexity of built landscapes, local topography and emission patterns. However, to ensure knowledge

Climate change scenarios and the dragon fruit climatic zoning in Brazil
Theoretical and Applied Climatology, 2022 Abstract BACKGROUND:The presente paper aims to compute climatological zones apt for the cultivation of pitaya based on trends in the occurrence of climate change events from the IPCC in Brazil. We used temperature and precipitation data from 4,942 cities collected on the NASA / POWER platform from 1990 to 2020 to elaborate on the current ...

How relevant are local climate zones and urban climate zones for urban climate research? Dijon (France) as a case study [PDF]
Urban Climate, 2018 Several typologies of urban surface properties have been proposed, in recent years, for urban heat island studies and climate modeling. Some were specifically developed for cities and urban climate issues, like the Urban Climate Zones, and the more recent Local Climate Zones.

Climate-Mediated Movement of an Avian Hybrid Zone [PDF]
Current Biology, 2014 The interaction between sibling species that share a zone of contact is a multifaceted relationship affected by climate change [1, 2]. Between sibling species, interactions may occur at whole-organism (direct or indirect competition) or genomic (hybridization and introgression) levels [3-5].
