On the brink of extinction? How climate change may affect global chelonian species richness and distribution (2012, background): “Looking towards the future, some authors suggest that global change may have devastating consequences for global biodiversity (e.g., Malcom et al., 2006; Pereira et al., 2010; Beaumont et al., 2011) and that a high percentage of species may even be ‘committed to extinction’ (Thomas et al.”
Habitat fragmentation and its lasting impact on Earth’s ecosystems (2015, background): “Destruction and degradation of natural ecosystems are the primary causes of declines in global biodiversity ( 1 , 2 ).”
Measuring the relative effect of factors affecting species distribution model predictions (2014, neutral): “…2005; Elith & Leathwick 2009; Franklin 2010; Peterson et al. 2011), stimu- lated by the pressing need identified a decade ago for more predictive models (Clark et al. 2001; Côt e & Reynolds 2002) and by their use in global change assessments (e.g. Schr€oter et al. 2005; Pereira et al. 2010).”
Extinction risk in cloud forest fragments under climate change and habitat loss (2013, background): “526 Diversity and Distributions, 19, 518–529, ª 2013 John Wiley & Sons Ltd (Soares-Filho et al., 2006; Pereira et al., 2010).”
Ecological specialization matters: long‐term trends in butterfly species richness and assemblage composition depend on multiple functional traits (2015, background): “…the ratio of records/ number of species was higher than 1.5 in each of the two compared time periods and (3) if number of records was less than fivefold the total number of species in the country, we only considered cells with less than a 10-fold difference in numbers of records between periods.”
Tools for integrating range change, extinction risk and climate change information into conservation management (2013, background): “Forecasts are that many more species will be affected in the near future (Pereira et al. 2010) with impacts potentially transforming the structure of ecological communities (Hoegh-Guldberg et al. 2007).”
Biodiversity in a changing climate: a synthesis of current and projected trends in the US (2013, background): “To effectively respond to the impacts of climate change on biodiversity, natural resource managers and policy makers must embrace approaches that are flexible and can account for multiple uncertainties stemming from variability in climate projections (eg precipitation patterns), impacts and response”
Current Status and Future Prospects for the Assessment of Marine and Coastal Ecosystem Services: A Systematic Review (2013, neutral): “[46,47]) and economical studies on Figure 6.”
Identifying the World's Most Climate Change Vulnerable Species: A Systematic Trait-Based Assessment of all Birds, Amphibians and Corals (2013, background): “However, anthropogenic climate change is becoming a significant new threat [4–7].”
