View article: Contrasts in perception of the interaction between non-native species and climate change
Contrasts in perception of the interaction between non-native species and climate change Open
Over the last century, intensification of human movement has resulted in a large-scale redistribution of species worldwide. In recent decades, this phenomenon has been further compounded by climate change, creating complex challenges in th…

Interspecific competition impacts the occupancy and range limits of two ptarmigan species along the elevation gradient in Norway Open
Many mountain species are expected to respond to climate change through upslope shifts of their range limits, but competition may restrict or alter this response. Under traditional range‐limit theory, it is expected that lower‐elevation sp…
