Distributional migrations, expansions, and contractions of tropical plant species as revealed in dated herbarium records (2012, background): “Indeed, only one study to date has documented shifts in the distribution of tropical plant communities (Feeley et al., 2011) and no study has yet documented range shifts in any lowland tropical plant or animal species.”
Rapid altitudinal migration of mountain plants in Taiwan and its implications for high altitude biodiversity (2012, background): “Kullman (2006) reports a mean rise of up to 4.5 m yr 1 from sites in the southern Scandes Mountains in Sweden, while le Roux and McGeoch (2008) and Parolo and Rossi (2008) report rate of altitudinal shift of 3.”
The relative importance of deforestation, precipitation change, and temperature sensitivity in determining the future distributions and diversity of Amazonian plant species (2012, background): “…changes (Bush et al., 2004; Petit et al., 2008) as well as a growing number of recent studies showing shifts in modern species distributions (e.g., Bertrand et al., 2011; Chen et al., 2011; Crimmins et al., 2011; Feeley, 2012; Feeley et al., 2011; Forero-Medina et al., 2011; Parmesan, 2006).”
Photosynthetic pathways in Bromeliaceae: phylogenetic and ecological significance of CAM and C3 based on carbon isotope ratios for 1893 species (2015, background): “analysis of the linkage between environmental factors and bromeliad distribution along elevational gradients may help to refine our knowledge of the ecological niches occupied by C3 and CAM species, and thereby allow more accurate predictions of the possible effects of future climate change on speci”
Common montane birds are declining in northern Europe (2014, background): “…studies have shown rapid range shifts in alpine plants and invertebrates (Grabherr et al. 1994, Parmesan 1996, Pauli et al. 1996, Luckman and Kavanagh 2000, Wilson et al. 2005, Kelly and Goulden 2008, Chen et al. 2011, Feeley et al. 2011), studies of alpine vertebrates are to our knowledge few.”
