The global trade of species promotes diverse human activities but also facilitates the introduction of potentially invasive species into new environme...

Many Indian mammals face range contraction and extinction, but assessments of their population status are hindered by the lack of reliable distributio...

A variety of evidence suggests that species may be able to withstand the effects of climate change in localised environments known as refugia, where s...

The European noble crayfish Astacus astacus is threatened by crayfish plague caused by the oomycete Aphanomyces astaci, which is spread by the invasiv...

Homing endonuclease genes (HEGs) exist naturally in many single-celled organisms and can show extremely strong genetic drive allowing them to spread t...

Selective logging is the most widespread driver of land-use change in biodiverse and carbon-rich tropical forests. However, the effects of selective l...

Linked demographic-bioclimatic models are emerging tools for forecasting climate change impacts on well-studied species, but these methods have been u...
