Protected area coverage of vulnerable regions to conserve functional diversity of birds

Conservation Biology, Volume 37, Issue 6, December 2023., 2023
Abstract Global‐change drivers are increasing the rates of species extinction worldwide, posing a serious threat to ecosystem functioning. Preserving the functional diversity of species is currently a priority to mitigate abrupt biodiversity loss in the coming decades.

Global warming facilitates the nesting of the loggerhead turtle on the Mediterranean coast of Spain

Animal Conservation, Volume 26, Issue 3, Page 365-380, June 2023., 2023
Average summer sand temperature (July 20th–August 10th) at 40 cm deep in Spanish Mediterranean beaches, as reconstructed from air temperature at El Prat beach, has increased from 1950 to 2019 (top figure). As a result, the duration of the viable nesting window for loggerhead turtles (bottom figure) has also increased and the thermal environment has ...

Warming undermines emergence success in a threatened alpine stonefly: A multi‐trait perspective on vulnerability to climate change

Functional Ecology, Volume 37, Issue 4, Page 1033-1043, April 2023., 2023
Read the free Plain Language Summary for this article on the Journal blog. Abstract Vulnerability to warming is often assessed using short‐term metrics such as the critical thermal maximum (CTMAX), which represents an organism's ability to survive extreme heat. However, the long‐term effects of sub‐lethal warming are an essential link to fitness in the

Aridity could have driven the local extinction of a common and multivoltine butterfly

Ecological Entomology, Volume 48, Issue 1, Page 40-54, February 2023., 2023
Coenonympha pamphilus is a common, generalist, and multivoltine butterfly, widely distributed throughout the Western Palearctic. However, it has seemingly disappeared from the southeast of the Iberian Peninsula. We performed ensemble species distribution models to detect the environmental variables that could be limiting the habitat suitability of this

The effect of flight efficiency on gap‐crossing ability in Amazonian forest birds

Biotropica, Volume 54, Issue 4, Page 860-868, July 2022., 2022
We determined the role of flight efficiency on the likelihood of crossing a road that bisected an Amazonian forest. We found that flight efficiency was a strong predictor of road‐crossing probability: species with high hand‐wing indices (more elongated wings) crossed the road more frequently than those with low hand‐wing indices.
