DOI: 10.3398/064.080.0303
Abstract: Abstract. As regional climates continue to warm, climate-sensitive species might increasingly depend on microclimates to maintain normal activities. The American pika (Ochotona princeps) has been suggested as a sentinel of montane climate change, largely due… read more here.
