A reversal of fortunes: climate change ‘winners’ and ‘losers’ in Antarctic Peninsula penguins
Climate change is a major threat to global biodiversity. Antarctic ecosystems are no exception. Investigating past species responses to climatic events can distinguish natural from anthropogenic impacts.

متن کاملFine-scale ecological and economic assessment of climate change on olive in the Mediterranean Basin reveals winners and losers.
The Mediterranean Basin is a climate and biodiversity hot spot, and climate change threatens agro-ecosystems such as olive, an ancient drought-tolerant crop of considerable ecological and socioeconomic importance. Climate change will impact the interactions of olive and the obligate olive fruit fly (Bactrocera oleae), and alter the economics of olive culture across the Basin. We estimate the ef...
