Modeling Species Distribution and Change Using Random Forest (2011, background): “Vegetation distribution is already changing (Rehfeldt et al. 2006; McKenney et al. 2007; Iverson et al. 2008) in response to changes in climate.”
Long-distance gene flow and adaptation of forest trees to rapid climate change (2012, background): “The estimated shift distance varies from 300 to 800 km within one century depending on the climate or greenhouse gas emission scenario (Mc Kenney et al. 2007), with considerable variation across both models and species.”
Extinction risk of North American seed plants elevated by climate and land‐use change (2017, result): “Journal of Applied Ecology © 2016 British Ecological Society, Journal of Applied Ecology, 54, 303–312 et al. 2005, 2011), North American tree species (Mckenney et al. 2007) and Californian plant species (Kelly & Goulden 2008; Loarie et al. 2008) support these findings.”
Deadly combination of genes and drought: increased mortality of herbivore‐resistant trees in a foundation species (2009, background): “…mortality has been shown previously (Allen & Breshears, 1998; Ogle et al., 2000; Guarin & Taylor, 2005; Mueller et al., 2005a; Gitlin et al., 2006; Millar et al., 2007) and indirectly, drought has been linked to tree death by acting as a trigger for insect or pathogen outbreaks followed by high…”
Genetic divergence in forest trees: understanding the consequences of climate change (2014, background): “Functional Ecology © 2013 British Ecological Society eastwards from 300 to <800 km (McKenney et al. 2007).”
Assessing species climatic requirements beyond the realized niche: some lessons mainly from tree species distribution modelling (2017, background): “For example, McKenney et al. (2007) gathered more than a million observations for 286 North American species.”
