Journal ArticleDOI
Extinction risk from climate change
Chris D. Thomas,Alison Cameron,Rhys E. Green,Rhys E. Green,Michel Bakkenes,Linda J. Beaumont,Yvonne C. Collingham,Barend F.N. Erasmus,Marinez Ferreira de Siqueira,Alan Grainger,Lee Hannah,Lesley Hughes,Brian Huntley,Albert S. van Jaarsveld,Guy F. Midgley,Lera Miles,Lera Miles,Miguel A. Ortega-Huerta,A. Townsend Peterson,Oliver L. Phillips,Stephen E. Williams +20 more
TL;DR: Estimates of extinction risks for sample regions that cover some 20% of the Earth's terrestrial surface show the importance of rapid implementation of technologies to decrease greenhouse gas emissions and strategies for carbon sequestration.
Journal ArticleDOI
Poleward shifts in geographical ranges of butterfly species associated with regional warming
Camille Parmesan,Nils Ryrholm,Constantí Stefanescu,Jane K. Hill,Chris D. Thomas,Henri Descimon,Brian Huntley,Lauri Kaila,Jaakko Kullberg,Toomas Tammaru,W. John Tennent,Jeremy A. Thomas,Martin Warren +12 more
TL;DR: The authors showed that migratory species can respond rapidly to yearly climate variation, and further global warming is predicted to continue for the next 50-100 years, and some migratory animals can respond quickly to climate variation.
Journal ArticleDOI
Rapid responses of British butterflies to opposing forces of climate and habitat change.
Martin Warren,Jane K. Hill,Jane K. Hill,Jeremy A. Thomas,J. Asher,Richard Fox,Brian Huntley,David B. Roy,Mark G. Telfer,S. Jeffcoate,P. Harding,G. Jeffcoate,Stephen G. Willis,J. N. Greatorex-Davies,D. Moss,Chris D. Thomas +15 more
TL;DR: The dual forces of habitat modification and climate change are likely to cause specialists to decline, leaving biological communities with reduced numbers of species and dominated by mobile and widespread habitat generalists.
Journal ArticleDOI

TL;DR: In this article, three main approaches used to derive these currencies (correlative, mechanistic and trait-based) and their associated data requirements, spatial and temporal scales of application and modelling methods are described.
Journal ArticleDOI
Reconstructing biomes from palaeoecological data: a general method and its application to European pollen data at 0 and 6 ka
TL;DR: In this article, a method for the objective biomization of pollen samples based on fuzzy logic is described, where the pollen sample is assigned to the biome to which it has the highest affinity subject to a tie-breaking rule.
