Bats and Water: Anthropogenic Alterations Threaten Global Bat Populations (2016, background): “In regions of Europe likely to become water-stressed because of human induced climate changes, bats may be affected as they may lack the physiological means to cope with water limitation (Sherwin et al. 2013).”
Cranial size has increased over 133 years in a common bat, Pipistrellus kuhlii: a response to changing climate or urbanization? (2014, background): “Temperate bats may be strongly affected by climate change (Rebelo et al., 2010; Sherwin et al., 2012): warmer temperatures might benefit bats by increasing food availability, advancing the timing of parturition or accelerating juvenile development, but they may also disrupt hibernation, lead to…”
Who’s calling? Acoustic identification of Brazilian bats (2018, background): “…and behavior of the species including foraging behavior and biogeography, the actual rate of climate change represents a serious and increasing threat to biodiversity (Sherwin et al. 2013), with unknown effects on the actual species distribution as well on the acoustics profiles of Brazilian bats.”
