DOI: 10.1002/ece3.10083
Abstract: Abstract Climate change and habitat loss are recognized as important drivers of shifts in wildlife species' geographic distributions. While often considered independently, there is considerable overlap between these drivers, and understanding how they contribute to… read more here.

DOI: 10.1002/ece3.71518
Abstract: ABSTRACT The southern range limit of the invasive Asian shore crab, Hemigrapsus sanguineus, along the United States East coast is further north than expected based on its native distribution. We investigated potential factors that may… read more here.

DOI: 10.1002/ece3.7364
Abstract: Abstract The range of the Canada lynx (Lynx canadensis) has contracted substantially from its historical range. Using harvest records, we found that the southern range of the lynx in Ontario in the late 1940s collapsed… read more here.

DOI: 10.1007/s10530-018-1907-9
Abstract: Temperature provides important physiological constraints that can influence the distribution of an invasive species. Gypsy moth (Lymantria dispar L.) is a generalist defoliator in North America and supraoptimal temperatures (above the optimal for developmental rate) have… read more here.

DOI: 10.1007/s10841-018-0095-3
Abstract: Knowledge of the ecology of pre-adult stages of an organism at its species’ range margins is a prerequisite for conserving species, especially for understanding its responses to future climate changes. Largely sedentary premature life stages… read more here.

DOI: 10.1111/jbi.70091
Abstract: The regular cycling of animal populations has fascinated ecologists for over a century. Some cycling populations have recently however, exhibited instability, often attributed to climate change. Snowshoe hare (Lepus americanus) cycles are well documented, displaying… read more here.
