Global Change Biology, 2015
One of the most important contemporary issues for coral reefs, apart from the need to reduce greenhouse gas emissions, is to understand the vulnerability of reef corals to climate change and to identify climate-change refugia. We recently used global species distribution models with two predictive variables, photosynthetically available radiation and ...

Phylogeographic insights into cryptic glacial refugia
Trends in Ecology & Evolution, 2008The glacial episodes of the Quaternary (2.6 million years ago-present) were a major factor in shaping the present-day distributions of extant flora and fauna, with expansions and contractions of the ice sheets rendering large areas uninhabitable for most species. Fossil records suggest that many species survived glacial maxima by retreating to refugia,

Trends in Ecology & Evolution, 2008
This book is a testament as to just how much fun science can be. It is a true ‘boy's own’ adventure – full of thrills, chills, bad guys, terrible setbacks and eureka-moment discoveries. Colinvaux, however, does not just take the reader on a roller-coaster ride through his illustrious and exciting life in science but also shows how science works, using ...

Nothofagus cunninghamii (Hook.) Oerst. is the dominant component of most cool temperate rainforest in southeastern Australia. N. cunninghamii has a long history in the region and has endured through a period of great climatic changes, including the glacial-interglacial cycles.

Quaternary Refugia and Persistence of Biodiversity
Science, 2002In order to preserve biodiversity, we need to understand the mechanisms that sustain it. In their perspective, Taberlet and Cheddadi describe work (Tzedakiset al.) that illustrates the importance of southern refugia for the persistence of some temperate tree species during the last glacial-interglacial cycles.

Remote Forest Refugia for Fijian Wildlife
Conservation Biology, 2006Abstract: On Pacific islands non‐native rats and mongooses threaten many native species. In Fiji we compared visitation rates of rats and mongooses at bait stations and measured biomass of leaf‐litter invertebrates to assess the relative predation pressure from these species in forest areas at different ...

Quaternary Science Reviews, 2008
The term ‘refugia’ was originally used to describe the restricted full-glacial locations of modern mid- and high-latitude taxa, especially trees and shrubs. We discuss the extension of this original use to other situations, including its widening to encompass ‘interglacial refugia’.

Refugia: The Survival of Urban Transspecies Communities encourages to us recognize the unexpected relations among species and to speculate about the possibility of their existence and development. It shows the need for care and support for multi-species urban communities by answering questions about the following: Which humans and non-humans may find ...
