Areas of high risk for mammalian biodiversity and Nature's Contributions to People under global warming

The paper develops a model to predict mammalian extinction risks under climate change and identifies high-risk areas for biodiversity and Nature's Contributions to People.

Climate risk for Italian habitats

The paper assesses climate risk for 139 Italian habitats in 2050 using analog velocity and magnitude metrics, finding high magnitude exposure for most habitats.

Beyond species-level planning: The role of bioclimatic variation within species distributions

This study compares species-level and bioclimatic component prioritization in conservation planning, finding that bioclimatic prioritization better captures environmental heterogeneity and niche diversity.

Synergies and trade-offs between maintaining climate niche variability and preserving climate stability

This study identifies spatial priorities for protecting climatic niche variability and stability in European vertebrates, finding overlaps and trade-offs between conservation strategies.

Opportunities and challenges for applying Key BiodiversityAreas Criterion E at large spatial scales

The paper applies KBA Criterion E across Europe to assess its effectiveness in identifying irreplaceable sites for insects and tetrapods, highlighting sensitivity to analytical choices and proposing adjustments for broader applicability.

The accelerating exposure of European protected areas to climate change

This study assesses climate change exposure across European protected areas and species, identifying regions with high risk and recommending network connectivity for adaptation.
