Double Trouble for Native Species Under Climate Change: Habitat Loss and Increased Environmental Overlap With Non‐Native Species

ABSTRACT Climate change and biological invasions are affecting natural ecosystems globally. The effects of these stressors on native species' biogeography have been studied separately, but their combined remain overlooked. Here, we develop a framework to assess how climate influences both the range niche overlap non‐native species using ecological models. We hypothesize that with similar niches will experience reductions increased under future climates. evaluate this ongoing invasion smallmouth bass ( Micropterus dolomieu ) northern pike Esox lucius habitats redband trout Oncorhynchus mykiss bull Salvelinus confluentus in western North America. Future conditions reduce habitat suitability for species, an might exacerbate negative fishes. Our offers tool predict potential distribution interactions change, informing adaptive management

Climate space, traits, and the spread of nonnative plants in North America

The future distribution of invading species depends on the climate space available and certain life history traits that facilitate invasion. Here, to predict spread potential plant introduced in North America north Mexico (NAM), we compiled data (i.e., seed size, form, photosynthetic pathways) for 3021 exotic NAM. We comparatively examined species' range size both native regions role key traits. found large most plants is still sizes global could better current NAM than those or plus regions. C3 had larger ranges average C4 CAM plants, herbaceous consistently showed stronger relationships between woody species, as was case within group. Seed negatively related However, surprisingly a positive correlation with no actual (native exotic) size. Our findings underline importance predicting species. Future studies should continue identify use underappreciated invasions under changing climate.
