A significant upward shift in plant species optimum elevation during the 20th century
(2008)
Spatial fingerprints of climate change on biotic communities are usually associated with changes in the distribution of species at their latitudinal or altitudinal extremes. By comparing the altitudinal distribution of 171 ...

The upper range limit of alien plants is not in equilibrium with climate in the Andes of central Chile
(MDPI, 2022)
Alien plant species are colonizing high-elevation areas along roadsides. In this study, we evaluated whether the distributions of alien plants in the central Chilean mountains have reached climatic equilibrium (i.e., upper ...
Current and future distributions of Espeletiinae (Asteraceae) in the Venezuelan Andes based on statistical downscaling of climatic variables and niche modelling
Background: Páramos are the high-elevation ecosystems of the humid tropical Andes,
characterised by the presence of giant rosettes of the Espeletiinae subtribe (Asteraceae).
Forecasted climate change is likely to reduce ...
Quaternary climatic fluctuations influence the demographic history of two species of sky-island endemic amphibians in the Neotropics
(2021-07-01)
We evaluated the role of Quaternary climatic fluctuations on the demographic history and population structure of amphibian species endemic to the ‘campo rupestre’ in the Neotropics, evaluating their distributional shifts, ...
