Targeted protection and restoration to conserve tropical biodiversity in a warming world

TL;DR: In this article, a combination of weather data and spatial modeling is used to quantify thermally buffered environments in a regional tropical rainforest, and a spatial surface of maximum air temperature that takes into account important climate-mediating processes is constructed.
Journal ArticleDOI

Stepping inside the niche: microclimate data are critical for accurate assessment of species' vulnerability to climate change

TL;DR: This study uses statistical downscaling to account for environmental factors and develops high-resolution estimates of daily maximum temperatures for a 36 000 km2 study area over a 38-year period that consistently place focal species within their fundamental thermal niche, whereas coarsely resolved layers do not.
Journal ArticleDOI

Distributions, life‐history specialization, and phylogeny of the rain forest vertebrates in the Australian Wet Tropics

TL;DR: In this paper, the authors compile distributional, general life-history characteristics and phylogenies for Australian tropical rain forest vertebrates to inform a wide range of comparative studies on the determinants of biodiversity patterns and to assess the impacts of global climate change.
Journal ArticleDOI

Potential for mountaintop boulder fields to buffer species against extreme heat stress under climate change

TL;DR: It is demonstrated that temperatures are cooler and become more stable at increasing depths within boulder fields and this data provides a first step toward building models that more realistically predict exposure to heat stress for fauna that utilize rocky habitats.
