Document Summary
Bio 302 lecture 13 (oct. 13th): climate change impacts to date. 1 framework: species can respond to cc in terms of time (phenology), space (range) or shift themselves (physiology, phenotypic plasticity: narrow physiological tolerance in the tropics. Looking at genetic biome organization and everything in between we can categorized the effects. Paper: rough grouping of the effects, looking at all the diverse processes we see most of them his, every aspect of species distribution has changed [scheffers, b. r. , et al. A lot of data suggesting rain shifting leading to an increase in hybridization. Cold edge changes expanding towards the north. Phenological changes: changes in spawning times of marine and freshwater fish, earlier budding and flowering in plants and earlier growing season, early and late migration in birds. Increased asynchrony: all kinds of organisms are breeding or arriving earlier to coincide with the selective pressures, tree swallow:
