Forecasting geographic patterns of population-level exposure, redistribution, and novel and disappearing genotypes of trees under climate change

ByCourtney Glancy

Dr Matt Fitzpatrick1, Andrew Gougherty1, Dr Stephen Keller2 1University Of Maryland Center For Environmental Science, Frostburg, United States, 2University of Vermont, Burlington, United States To avoid extirpation under rapid environmental change, species must either adapt or move to newly suitable habitats. Most modeling efforts ignore population-level variation in the relative importance of these two strategies…

Patterns and models of natal dispersal in the wild boar

ByCourtney Glancy

Prof Stefano Focardi1, Dr Barbara  Franzetti2, Dr Marta Catenacci2, Dr. Francesca Ronchi3 1ISC-CNR, Sesto fiorentino , Italy, 2ISPRA, Roma, Italy, 3ISPRA, Venezia, Italy The range shift of wildlife species is determined  by artificial mechanisms (such as voluntary or accidental translocations) or natural processes, the most relevant being natal dispersal. The evolutionary importance of natal dispersal…

Towards a global database of alien plants in protected areas: effects of regional naturalized species richness

ByCourtney Glancy

Dr Desika Moodley1 1Institute of Botany, The Czech Academy of Sciences, Průhonice  , Czech Republic Abstract: Factors that determine the variation in plant invasions world-wide have recently become well understood, however, surprisingly little is known about processes and mechanisms of invasions into undisturbed ecosystems harboured in protected areas (PAs). Invasive species management is difficult and…

How regional fishery bodies have responded to climate change

ByCourtney Glancy

Marcus Howard1, Prof Gretta Pecl1, Jonathan Sumby1 11Centre for Marine Socioecology, University of Tasmania, Hobart, Australia, 2Institute for Marine and Antarctic Studies, University of Tasmania, Hobart, Australia Abstract: This is the first global survey of Regional Fishery Bodies (RFB) responses thus far to the current and predicted future effects of climate change. Fisheries management is…

Butterflies and climate change: Identifying vagrant records to characterize species’ mobility

ByCourtney Glancy

Prof William Fagan1, Dr. Kumar Mainali1, Prof. Leslie Ries2, Prof.  Trevor Hefley3 1University Of Maryland, College Park,, United States, 2Georgetown University, Washington,, United States, 3Kansas State University, Manhattan,, United States Facing climate change, species unable to adapt locally must disperse if they are to persist.  But how much dispersal is possible? How can we distinguish…
