Pervasive poleward shifts among North American bird species
TL;DR: In this article, the authors demonstrate pervasive population trends across the North American avifauna, reflected in the mean latitudinal position across all individuals of each species, conservatively estimated as affecting nearly half of the species in the avivauna, and take this bellwether as a signal that climate change processes are affecting a significant proportion of North American bird species, and that biodiv...

Genetic Structure of Herpetofauna on Halmahera Island, Indonesia: Implications for Aketajawe‐Lolobata National Park
Mohammad Iqbal Setiadi,Amir Hamidy,Zainal Abidin,Dwi Susanto,Rafe M. Brown,A. Townsend Peterson,Xingong Li,Ben J. Evans +7 more
TL;DR: These findings--the most comprehensive survey of multispecies genetic variation on Halmahera to date--bode well for the efficacy of the recently established Aketajawe-Lolobata National Park in conserving a substantial component of vertebrate genetic variation in this island.
Rhododendron Species in the Indian Eastern Himalayas: New Approaches to Understanding Rare Plant Species Distributions
TL;DR: Menon as discussed by the authors used field surveys and ecological niche modeling to expand existing knowledge about Rhododen-dron species' distributions in the region, with a view to helping develop strategies for conservation action and possible rein-troductions.
