Titre : A climatic atlas of european breeding birds Type de document : livre Auteurs : Huntley, B. ; Green, R.E. ; Collingham, Y.C. ; Willis, S.G. Editeur : Barcelona : Lynx Edicions Année de publication : 2007 Importance : 521 p. ISBN/ISSN/EAN : 978-84-96553-14-9 Note générale : Inventaire 2008: Pointé en rayon le 10/04/2008 Langues : Anglais (eng) Catégories : Zones géographiques:Europe Mots-clés : Birds Climatic changes Climatic zones Résumé : A comprehensive exploration of the relationships between the distributions of birds breeding in Europe and the present climate, and how future climatic change may alter each species' potential breeding distribution. Results are presented in detail for 431 species; brief accounts are also included for a further 48 native and 16 introduced species. The contents of the volume include: outline accounts of climate and vegetation patterns in Europe; a biogeographic analysis of the breeding birds of Europe; a review of the background to studies of the relationships between species' distributions and climate; a discussion of the methods used in such studies; a summary of how European climate is projected to change by the end of the present century; a discussion of how species respond to climatic changes; for each of 431 species, a brief account of their distribution and ecology, maps of their recent observed and modelled geographical distribution, and of their potential future distribution in the late 21st century, a graphical representation of the location in climate space of the species' distribution and text describing the possible effects of climate change on the species; a synthesis and discussion of the results for the ensemble of 431 species examined; and a concluding section exploring the implications of these results, especially with respect to the conservation of birds in Europe. The many maps and diagrams this volume contains, as well as the succinct accounts of the distribution and ecology of the 431 species examined in detail, offer much that will be valued by the amateur and professional ornithologist alike. The introductory, review and synthetic material will also be of interest to a wider range of biologists and conservation scientists, as well as to those in government and non-government organisations addressing issues relating to biodiversity conservation, both in Europe and beyond.

Titre : Plants at the margin: ecological limits and climate change Type de document : livre Auteurs : R. M. M. Crawford, Auteur Mention d'édition : 1st ed. Editeur : New York : Cambridge University Press Année de publication : 2008 Importance : 478 p. ISBN/ISSN/EAN : 978-0-521-62309-4 Note générale : DOI:10.1017/CBO9780511754906 Langues : Anglais (eng) Mots-clés : Climatic changes Environmental aspects Plant communities Vegetation and climate Résumé : Le site éditeur indique : Margins are by their very nature environmentally unstable - does it therefore follow that plant populations adapted for life in such areas will prove to be pre-adapted to withstand the changes that may be brought about by a warmer world? Biogeography, demography, reproductive biology, physiology and genetics all provide cogent explanations as to why limits occur where they do, and the purpose of this book is to bring together these different avenues of enquiry. Crawford's numerous beautiful illustrations of plants in their natural habitats remind us that the environment remains essential to our understanding of plants and their function. This book is suited to students, researchers and anyone with an interest in the impact of climate change on our world.

Poyser Année de publication : 2011 Collection : Poyser monographs Importance : 304 p. ISBN/ISSN/EAN : 978-0-7136-8865-8 Langues : Anglais (eng) Mots-clés : Birds Climatic changes Ecology Geographical distribution Palearctic Résumé : History and chance events play a central role in a story that has its origins before the asteroid impact that finished off the dinosaurs. In this book, Finlayson shows that the avifauna of the Palearctic long predates the glaciations of the last two million years, and had established itself gradually during the turbulent times of the Miocene and Pliocene, the lifting of Tibet and the drying of the continents having a major influence on these birds.
