Quantifying exposure of amphibian species to heat waves, cold spells, and droughts. [PDF]

Conserv Biol
Abstract Globally, amphibians face severe threats, such as climate change and associated extreme events. Our goal was to quantify global amphibian exposure to 3 classes of extreme events: heat waves, cold spells, and droughts. We used the MERRA‐2 extreme climate events data and the standardized precipitation–evapotranspiration index database to ...

Moth Communities Reveal High Stability Despite Ongoing Compositional Shifts Over Five Years Following Hurricane Disturbance. [PDF]

Ecol Evol
We examined the temporal dynamics and ecological stability of tropical forest moth communities using a unique dataset spanning 6 months before and up to 5 years after two extreme hurricanes. While abundance and richness recovered within 2 years, species composition continued to shift, indicating ongoing reassembly with a directional trajectory toward ...

Region‐wide retreats from lower elevations of range‐restricted birds across the Northern Andes

Conservation Biology, Volume 37, Issue 5, October 2023., 2023
Abstract Local studies show upslope shifts in the distribution of tropical birds in response to warming temperatures. Unanswered is whether these upward shifts occur regionally across many species. We considered a nearly 2000‐km length of the Northern Andes, where deforestation, temperature, and extreme weather events have increased during the past ...

Tropical butterflies use thermal buffering and thermal tolerance as alternative strategies to cope with temperature increase

Journal of Animal Ecology, Volume 92, Issue 9, Page 1759-1770, September 2023., 2023
Tropical butterflies with a stronger ability to thermoregulate have lower thermal tolerance, and vice versa. This implies that species adapt to climate change using one strategy at the expense of the other, and many tropical butterflies may be at risk.
