Integrating climate change vulnerability assessments from species distribution models and trait-based approaches

摘要: To accommodate climate-driven changes in biological communities, conservation plans are increasingly making use of models to predict species’ responses climate change. date, species distribution have been the most commonly used approach for assessing vulnerability Biological trait-based approaches, which emerged recently, and include consideration sensitivity adaptive capacity, provide alternative potentially conflicting assessments present practitioners planners with difficult choices. Here we discuss differing objectives strengths guidance their application. We outline an integrative methodological framework change impacts on that uses both traditional modelling approaches assessments. show how these can be conceptually as inputs guide monitoring planning.
