Work on climate change induced evolution typically concerns the documentation of temporal trends in traits that are assumed to be fitness-related (for example, phenology), possibly linked with an exploration of the genetic underpinning of such traits3. Even if a focal trait is heritable and ...
Climate change is the long-term, continued shifting of temperatures and weather patterns on planet Earth; an evolution driven by human activities. In the over 4.5 billion years that Earth has existed, orbiting the sun in the small stellar neighborhood we call home, our planet has gone through...

. These scenarios can be comprised of various driving forces of climate change which consist of different future scenarios that might influence GHG sources and sinks, including the energy system and land use changes. Because of the large uncertainties concerning the evolution of such driving factors,...
The magnitude and ecological impact of climate change varies with latitude. Several recent models have shown that tropical ectotherms face the greatest risk from warming because they currently experience temperatures much closer to their physiological optimum than temperate taxa. Even a small increase in...
To be clear, the scale and speed of the evolution of the problem are highly variable across geographies and the effects over the next decade will be more muted in certain places than in others. While this buys time for action and makes climate change more manageable, i...
Climate change affects wild plant species across their geographical ranges. Studies at the margins of species' ranges reveal upslope expansion, low-elevation range contraction, and, in some cases, a lack of geographic response to climate change (1). However, all populations, including those in the...
Climate change plays a crucial role in the change of biodiversity of the planet. There is an ample evidence that climate change affects biodiversity. According to the Millennium Ecosystem Assessment, global climate change is probably going to become one among the foremost significant drivers of biodiv...
