abstract |
Over the past decade, several models have been developed to predict the impact of
climate change on biodiversity. Results from these models have suggested some alarming
consequences of climate change for biodiversity, predicting, for example, that in
the next century many plants and animals will go extinct and there could be a large-scale
dieback of tropical rainforests. However, caution may be required in interpreting
results from these models, not least because their coarse spatial scales fail to capture
topography or “microclimatic buffering” and they often do not consider the full acclimation
capacity of plants and animals. Several recent studies indicate that taking these
factors into consideration can seriously alter the model predictions |
