Dr Regan Early1, Dr Dana Blumenthal, Dr Cascade Sorte, Ms Evelyn Beaury, Professor Deborah Goldberg 1University Of Exeter, Penryn, United Kingdom Very little is known about how species shifting their geographic ranges will integrate with, or respond to, the ecological communities they encounter. Will ‘climate migrants’ behave like invasive species introduced between biogeographic regions in…
Dr Anna Eklöf1 1Linköping University, Linköping, Sweden When species shift distributions due to changed climatic conditions novel species interactions are formed. Several species may simultaneously enter new areas and there establish in a new ecological network consisting of hundreds of new species. One key question when aiming to understand species range shifts are if and…
Alexander Arkhipkin Abstract: In the last five years it has been observed a notable trend in meteorology of the Southern Ocean that resulted in shifting the Antarctic chain of macroscale Low Pressure Cyclonic Eddies to the north. Prevalent westerly air flows over the southern Patagonian Shelf changed to northerly/southerly air flows with an increased wind…
Ms Eva Katharina Engelhardt1, Mr Matthias Biber, Dr. Christian Hof 1Biodiversity & Global Change Lab, Terrestrial Ecology Research Group, Technical University of Munich, Germany, Freising, Germany Changes in climate and land-use are considered to have considerable impacts on different levels of biodiversity, associated with rapid declines in many populations, range shifts, and changes in species…
Miss Keziah Conroy1, Professor Robert Foley1 1University of Cambridge, Cambridge, United Kingdom Abstract: Spatial information is a major element in palaeoanthropology, as fossils or archaeological site distributions reflect species or cultural extents and environmental relationships. However, most applications are descriptive, based solely on the fossil or archaeological record. Neo-ecologists have developed more formal models –…
