Effects of Taxonomic Uncertainty on Range Size and Niche Estimation in a Southern Ocean Cryptic Species Complex

open access: yesJournal of Biogeography, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Aim Understanding how biodiversity varies over space and time is critical for informing environmental policy and decision making. The application of molecular techniques for sequencing organisms has increased the ability to identify cryptic species, which provides a source of taxonomic uncertainty that can potentially affect such decisions ...

Sovereign Debt in a Warming World: Are Credit Ratings Responding to Climate Risks?

open access: yesKyklos, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Investors and policymakers increasingly worry that climate change threatens sovereign debt. While recent studies find a negative effect, they typically estimate models assuming a time‐invariant impact and rely on climate variables endogenous to economic and policy conditions.

Genomic Signatures and Demographic History of the Widespread and Critically Endangered Yellow‐Breasted Bunting

open access: yesMolecular Ecology, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Population declines may have long‐term genetic consequences, including genetic erosion and inbreeding depression, which could affect species' evolutionary potential and increase their risk of extinction. Small populations are more vulnerable to genetic threats than common species, but even species with large populations can also be at risk of ...

Global sensitivity analysis of integrated assessment models with multivariate outputs

open access: yesRisk Analysis, EarlyView.
Abstract Risk assessments of complex systems are often supported by quantitative models. The sophistication of these models and the presence of various uncertainties call for systematic robustness and sensitivity analyses. The multivariate nature of their response challenges the use of traditional approaches.
