The data void in modeling current and future distributions of tropical species (2011, methodology): “This information is a valuable tool in designing management strategies and/or protected areas aimed at minimizing future species loss (Hannah et al., 2007; Pressey et al., 2007; Thuiller, 2007; Lee & Jetz, 2008).”
How much do we overestimate future local extinction rates when restricting the range of occurrence data in climate suitability models (2010, methodology): “Therefore, climate niche modeling is widely used to estimate the potential impacts of climate change on species distribution ranges (Thuiller 2007).”
Speciation collapse and invasive species dynamics during the Late Devonian “Mass Extinction” (2012, background): “The primary drivers of the current biodiversity crisis are habitat destruction, climate change, and the spread of invasive species (Thuiller, 2007).”
Effects of experimental nitrogen additions on plant diversity in an old‐growth tropical forest (2010, background): “, 2006) and global climate change (Thomas et al., 2004; Thuiller, 2007).”
Thermal variability alters climatic stress resistance and plastic responses in a globally invasive pest, the Mediterranean fruit fly (Ceratitis capitata) (2010, background): “Although it is generally accepted that climate is changing (IPCC [Intergovernmental Panel on Climate Change], 2007), mitigating and coping with these effects are pressing unresolved issues (Parmesan, 2006; Thuiller, 2007; Williams et al., 2008).”
Sustainable development and equity (2009, background): “…Links with climate change and climate policy The literature on the complex relations between climate change, climate policies, and SD is large (Swart et al., 2003; Robinson et al., 2006; Bizikova et al., 2007; Sathaye et al., 2007; Thuiller, 2007; Akimoto et al., 2012; Janetos et al., 2012).”
Conservation and climate change: Assessing the vulnerability of snow leopard habitat to treeline shift in the Himalaya (2012, positive): “However, individual-species climate models that are more reliable than assemblage or communitybased models (Heikkinen et al., 2006) can provide much-needed ll rights reserved. rest). et al., 2002a; Pearson and Dawson, 2003; Thuiller, 2007).”
Mammalian Response to Cenozoic Climatic Change (2009, background): “…not they are facilitated by global climatic change, may simply introduce animals to environments in which they previously could have survived but to which they could not disperse (Thuiller 2007), and underscores that the relative roles of immigration and climate may not always be easy to untangle.”
Climate Change Threatens Giant Panda Protection in the 21st Century (2015, background): “…change has been widely recognized as a grave threat to biodiversity and is expected to interact with other environmental factors, leading to changes to species distributions, life histories, community compositions, and ecosystem functions (Thuiller, 2007; Bellard et al., 2012; Davies et al., 2014).”
Niche breadth, rarity and ecological characteristics within a regional flora spanning large environmental gradients (2012, background): “The functioning of ecosystems involving complex interactions is strongly altered by ongoing global changes (Chapin et al., 2000; Thuiller, 2007), and may lead to unprecedented losses of biodiversity (Pimm & Raven, 2000).”
How species traits and affinity to urban land use control large‐scale species frequency (2009, background): “© 2009 Blackwell Publishing Ltd 534 Diversity and Distributions , 15 , 533–546 Land-use change, including urbanization, is the driving force of global change and the main driver for the loss of biological diversity (e.g. Vitousek et al ., 1997; Thuiller, 2007).”
Climate change causes rapid changes in the distribution and site abundance of birds in winter (2008, background): “Nevertheless, the spatial distribution of ecological zones is such that for each 1 1C of temperature change ecological zones are shifted poleward by about 160 km (Thuiller, 2007).”
Seed priming: state of the art and new perspectives (2015, background): “Land use change and climate change make the conservation of biodiversity even more of a challenge (Thuiller 2007; Jackson and Kennedy 2009).”
