• Extinction risk of North American seed plants elevated by climate and land‐use change (2017, background): “Journal of Applied Ecology © 2016 British Ecological Society, Journal of Applied Ecology, 54, 303–312 addition, the shortage of high-quality species occurrence data and high-resolution climate and land-use data could also increase the uncertainty of SDM projections (Urban 2015).”
• Biodiversity redistribution under climate change: Impacts on ecosystems and human well-being (2017, neutral): “Extinction risk from climate change has been widely discussed and contested ( 38 – 40 ), and predictions of extinction risk for the 21st century are considerable ( 41 ).”
