Climate change and the effects of temperature extremes on Australian flying-foxes
TL;DR: Temperature extremes are important additional threats to Australian flying-foxes and the ecosystem services they provide, and it is recommended close monitoring of colonies where temperatures exceeding 42.0°C are predicted.
Journal ArticleDOI

TL;DR: In this paper, a global analysis of future range change of common and widespread species shows that without mitigation, 57±6% of plants and 34±7% of animals are likely to lose ≥50% of their present climatic range by the 2080s.

Gunnar Keppel,Karel Mokany,Grant Wardell-Johnson,Ben L. Phillips,Ben L. Phillips,Justin A. Welbergen,Justin A. Welbergen,April E. Reside +7 more
TL;DR: In this article, a flexible framework for prioritizing future refugia, based on their capacity, is proposed to identify and quantify the potential for species persistence in large-scale, long-term climatic change.
Journal ArticleDOI
Strategic Variation in Mobbing as a Front Line of Defense against Brood Parasitism
TL;DR: It is shown that mobbing of common cuckoos Cuculus canorus by reed warblers Acrocephalus scirpaceus is an effective defense against parasitism and supports the view that hosts use a "defense in-depth strategy," with successive flexible lines of defense that coevolve with corresponding offensive lines of the parasite.
