Sex-specific ornament evolution is a consistent feature of climatic adaptation across space and time in dragonflies

July 2021
Michael P. Moore, Kaitlyn Hersch, Chanont Sricharoen, Sarah Lee, Caitlin Reice, Paul Rice, Sophie Kronick, Kim A. Medley, and Kasey D. Fowler-Finn.
Proceedings of the National Academy of Sciences
Dragonflies consistently adapt to warmer climates across space and time by evolving less male melanin ornamentation—a mating-related trait that also absorbs solar radiation and heats individuals above ambient temperatures.Read More →

Climate change that stimulates tree growth can make smaller trees produce more seeds per year, but also can render larger trees less able to reproduce.Read More →

Extinction risk assessment of a Patagonian ungulate using population dynamics models under climate change scenarios

July 2020

International Journal of Biometeorology
Huemul population is currently in a quasi-extinction process, with extinction probabilities increasing with climate change.These results are crucial for conservation of species like huemul that have low densities and are threatened by climate change.Read More →
