Rapid climate change results in long-lasting spatial homogenization of phylogenetic diversity [PDF]
How past climate change has affected biodiversity over large spatial scales remains underexplored. Here, the authors find marked homogenization in flowering plant phylogenetic diversity across Central and Northern Europe linked to rapid climate change ...

Climate gradients, and patterns of biodiversity and biotic homogenization in urban residential yards. [PDF]
Residential yards constitute a substantive biodiverse greenspace within urban areas. This biodiversity results from a combination of native and non-native species and can contribute to biotic homogenization.

Climate change linked to functional homogenization of a subtropical estuarine system
Climate change causes marine species to shift and expand their distributions, often leading to changes in species diversity. While increased biodiversity is often assumed to confer positive benefits on ecosystem functioning, many examples have shown that

Progress in Research on Homogenization of Climate Data
The observation data from ground surface meteorological stations is an important basis on which climate change research is carried out, while the homogenization of the data is necessary for improving the quality and homogeneity of the time series. This paper reviews recent advances in the techniques of identifying and adjusting inhomogeneity in climate

Rise of the generalists: evidence for climate driven homogenization in avian communities [PDF]
ABSTRACTAims Biogeographical evidence suggests a strong link between climate and patterns of species diversity, and climate change is known to cause range shifts. However, there is little understanding of how shifts affect community composition and we lack empirical evidence of recent impacts of climate change on the diversity of vertebrates.

The Homogenization of Urban Climate Action Discourses [PDF]
Abstract The diversification of actors in global climate governance may entail risks, but it is also linked to enhanced democratic performance and opportunities for innovation. To what extent has this diversification fostered a parallel multiplication of perspectives in urban climate policy?

Data Assimilation in Slow–Fast Systems Using Homogenized Climate Models [PDF]
AbstractA deterministic multiscale toy model is studied in which a chaotic fast subsystem triggers rare transitions between slow regimes, akin to weather or climate regimes. Using homogenization techniques, a reduced stochastic parameterization model is derived for the slow dynamics.

Thermal homogenization of boreal communities in response to climate warming
Globally, rising temperatures are increasingly favoring warm-affiliated species. Although changes in community composition are typically measured by the mean temperature affinity of species (the community temperature index, CTI), they may be driven by different processes and accompanied by shifts in the diversity of temperature affinities and breadth ...
