Is drought the main decline factor at the rear edge of Europe? The case of southern Iberian pine plantations (2012, background): “, populations at or near the species range limits) are likely to be particularly sensitive to the effects of increasing aridity and management release (Hampe and Petit, 2005).”
A potential tool to mitigate the impacts of climate change to the caribbean leatherback sea turtle (2012, background): “Accordingly, the threat of climate change to biodiversity has received considerable research attention recently (Hampe & Petit, 2005; Araujo & Rahbek, 2006; Heller & Zavaleta, 2009; Willis & Bhagwat, 2009), to try to predict the likely effects of climate change and to enable mitigation of any…”
Past and future range shifts and loss of diversity in dwarf willow (Salix herbacea L.) inferred from genetics, fossils and modelling (2009, background): “There is now an increased awareness of the importance of assessing the impact of ongoing and future climate change on genetic diversity as well as on geographic ranges of species (Hampe & Petit, 2005; Petit et al ., 2005; Willis & Birks, 2006).”
A seeding experiment for testing tree-community recruitment under variable environments: Implications for forest regeneration and conservation in Mediterranean habitats (2009, background): “These populations represent the southern limit of the distribution area and, under a Mediterranean climate, boreo-alpine species face environmental constraints that differ from those of their main, northern distribution area (García et al., 2000; Castro et al., 2004; Hampe and Petit, 2005).”
Long-distance gene flow and adaptation of forest trees to rapid climate change (2012, background): “Gene ﬂow can have contrasted consequences for populations at trailing and leading edges of a shifting range (Hampe & Petit 2005): populations at the leading edge or in the central part of the distribution are likely to receive “pre-adapted” genes from more southern populations, and gene ﬂow may…”
European seaweeds under pressure: Consequences for communities and ecosystem functioning (2015, background): “of rear edges may have disproportionately negative implications for the evolvability and conservation of species as a whole (Hampe and Petit, 2005).”
Genetic variation across species’ geographical ranges: the central–marginal hypothesis and beyond (2008, background): “…and thus cannot explicitly evaluate the potential contributions of, for example, sequential founder effects during postglacial colonization (Hewitt 1999), secondary contact zones (e.g. Petit et al. 2003), or greater differentiation and diversity in ancestral refugial areas (Hampe & Petit 2005).”
Defining and observing stages of climate-mediated range shifts in marine systems (2014, background): “While studies of evolution at contracting range edges are scarce, this is an arguably important area of research for setting conservation priorities (Hampe and Petit, 2005; Munday et al., 2013).”
Species distribution models and mitochondrial DNA phylogeography suggest an extensive biogeographical shift in the high‐intertidal seaweed Pelvetia canaliculata (2014, background): “However, the distinct evolutionary histories and selective regimes experienced by lineages occupying different geographical/environmental spaces are likely to promote regional accumulation of unique and potentially adaptive genetic variability (Hampe & Petit, 2005; Pearman et al., 2010).”
Forecasting the Effects of Global Warming on Biodiversity (2007, background): “…data, in each of these cases, predicted different rates of adaptive evolution in different parts of the species’ range (e.g., rear and leading edge; Hampe and Petit 2005) but generally suggested that evolutionary rates would be slower than the anticipated rate of climate change (Etterson and Shaw…”
Past tree range dynamics in the Iberian Peninsula inferred through phylogeography and palaeodistribution modelling: A review (2010, background): “Moreover, genetic surveys demonstrate that those populations that have persisted roughly in situ over extended periods have accumulated outstanding levels of genetic differentiation and represent unique stores of species' evolutionary history (Hampe and Petit, 2005).”
