DOI: 10.1002/ece3.7744
Abstract: Abstract A fundamental yet controversial topic in biogeography is how and why species range sizes vary along spatial gradients. To advance our understanding of these questions and to provide insights into biological conservation, we assessed… read more here.

DOI: 10.1071/am16037
Abstract: The red fox (Vulpes vulpes) is probably the most intensively studied introduced predator in Australia, but little is known about its movements in arid areas. Here, we report on the home-range sizes of one male… read more here.

DOI: 10.1111/cobi.12988
Abstract: Assessments of risk to biodiversity often rely on spatial distributions of species and ecosystems. Range-size metrics used extensively in these assessments, such as area of occupancy (AOO), are sensitive to measurement scale, prompting proposals to… read more here.

DOI: 10.1111/gcb.14590
Abstract: Understanding forest tree responses to climate warming and heatwaves is important for predicting changes in tree species diversity, forest C uptake, and vegetation-climate interactions. Yet, tree species differences in heatwave tolerance and their plasticity to… read more here.

How climatic variability is linked to the spatial distribution of range sizes: seasonality versus climate change velocity in sphingid moths
Sign Up to like & getrecommendations! Published in 2017 at "Journal of Biogeography"
DOI: 10.1111/jbi.13051
Abstract: Aim To map the spatial variation of range sizes within sphingid moths, and to test hypotheses on its environmental control. In particular, we investigate effects of climate change velocity since the Pleistocene and the mid-Holocene,… read more here.
