As human-induced climate change accelerates, scientists and policymakers involved with biodiversity conservation need authoritative information in order to design effective plans and responses. This book meets this need. It discusses what is known about climate changes in different areas of the world, recent trends in climate change and projections for the future, ways that particular organisms are responding to climate change, predictions for the future of biological diversity in the face of climate change, dynamic models to forecast complex synergistic effects, conservation challenges and the tools that are available to address them, social and policy issues and choices, and other critical topics in climate change biology.
