Extinction risk from climate change

Climate change over the past ∼30 years has produced numerous shifts in the distributions and abundances of species1,2 and has been implicated in one species-level extinction3. Using projections of species' distributions for future climate scenarios, we assess extinction risks for sample regions t...

short_description	Using projections of species' distributions for future climate scenarios, this paper assesses extinction risks for sample regions that cover some 20% of the Earth's terrestrial surface.
