On microrefugia and cryptic refugia [PDF]

open access: yesJournal of Biogeography, 2010
AbstractThe existence of microrefugia and/or cryptic refugia has been proposed to explain the colonization patterns of temperate continents after the Last Glacial Maximum, as well as to gain an understanding of the present genetic structure of species and their populations.

Managing Climate Change Refugia for Climate Adaptation. [PDF]

open access: yesPLoS ONE, 2016
Refugia have long been studied from paleontological and biogeographical perspectives to understand how populations persisted during past periods of unfavorable climate.

Quantitative Estimates of Glacial Refugia for Chimpanzees (Pan troglodytes) since the Last Interglacial (120,000 BP) [PDF]

open access: yes, 2021
Paleoclimate reconstructions have enhanced our understanding of how past climates have shaped present-day biodiversity. We hypothesize that the geographic extent of Pleistocene forest refugia and suitable habitat fluctuated significantly in time during ...

Climatic Refugia and Geographical Isolation Contribute to the Speciation and Genetic Divergence in Himalayan-Hengduan Tree Peonies (Paeonia delavayi and Paeonia ludlowii)

open access: yesFrontiers in Genetics, 2021
Himalaya and Hengduan Mountains (HHM) is a biodiversity hotspot, and very rich in endemic species. Previous phylogeographical studies proposed different hypotheses (vicariance and climate-driven speciation) in explaining diversification and the observed ...

Basaltic Outcrops as Centers of Diversity for Xerothermic Plants in the Sudetes Mountains (Central Europe)

open access: yesDiversity, 2021
Rock outcrops have promoted a high level of species diversity and provided a stable microclimate for long time periods. The present study is devoted to plant diversity of natural Quaternary outcrops of basaltic rocks.

The ecological health of Lake Victoria (Kenya) in the face of growing cage aquaculture

open access: yesConservation Science and Practice, 2022
The rapid growth of cage aquaculture of introduced Nile tilapia (Oreochromis niloticus) in Lake Victoria has raised urgent environmental concerns. This study aims to compare local environmental conditions, fish species abundance and diversity between ...

Phylogeographic structure of the pygmy shrew: revisiting the roles of southern and northern refugia in Europe [PDF]

open access: yes, 2020
Southern and northern glacial refugia are considered paradigms that explain the complex phylogeographical patterns and processes of European biota. Here, we provide a revisited statistical phylogeographical analysis of the pygmy shrew Sorex minutus ...

Are fire refugia less predictable due to climate change?

open access: yes, 2021
Fire refugia—unburnt habitat within a wildfire’s perimeter—play a key role in wildlife persistence and recovery. While studies have shown that the location of refugia is influenced by local topographic factors, growing evidence points to extreme fire ...
