GLACIAL SPECIALIST SPECIES ARE MORE VULNERABLE TO CLIMATE CHANGE THAN GENERALIST SPECIES (DRAWING PARELLELS BETWEEN EMPIRICAL AND ECOLOGICAL DISTINCTIONS)
Bart Steen, Alejandra Morán‐Ordóñez, Antoine Guisan, Gianalberto Losapio
The paper compares the distribution predictors of glacial specialist and generalist plant species in Switzerland using Species Distribution Models and finds bioclimatic variables strongly predict specialists, while topographic and lithological variables predict generalists more strongly.
