Using dynamic vegetation models to simulate plant range shifts (2014, background): “Pollen-reconstructed landscapes are one option (Williams et al. 2004), as are phenomenological observations of recent altitudinal (Jump et al. 2012) or latitudinal (Walther et al. 2005) shifts of species.”
Topography-driven isolation, speciation and a global increase of endemism with elevation (Forthcoming) (2016, background): “Some studies report consistent increases in per-species levels of endemism with elevation in localized areas (e.g. Kessler, 2002; Vetaas & Grytnes, 2002; Mallet-Rodrigues et al., 2010; Jump et al., 2012; Nogu!e et al., 2013, Irl et al., 2015), but no global synthesis has yet been attempted.”
Impacts of global climate change on the floras of oceanic islands – Projections, implications and current knowledge (2015, background): “Furthermore, a study from Taiwan (Jump et al., 2012) suggests that potential climate change-related upward shifts of plant species from lower elevational zones into summit ecosystems might threaten high elevation endemics on islands.”
Shifts in plant distributions in response to climate warming in a biodiversity hotspot, the Hengduan Mountains (2018, background): “Similarly, upslope migration was found in plants distributed in the Santa Rosa Mountains of North America (Kelly & Goulden, 2008), Taiwan (Jump et al., 2012) and the Andes (Zutta & Rundel, 2017).”
