Vulnerability of Subarctic and Arctic breeding birds

Abstract: Recent research predicts that future climate change will result in substantial biodiversity loss associated with loss of habitat for species. However, the magnitude of the anticipated biodiversity impacts are less well known. Studies of species vulnerability to climate change through species distribution models are often limited to assessing the extent of species' exposure to the consequences of climate change to their local environment, neglecting species sensitivity to global change. The likelihood that spec… Show more

“…These characteristics mean that they scored 0.55 and 0.60 respectively on the traits-index. Combining the exposure-index and the traits-index places the snowcock firmly in the "Most vulnerable" category of the vulnerability matrix developed by Hof et al (2017) whilst the grouse was on the border between the "Most vulnerable" and the "Trait vulnerable" categories.…”

“…We followed the vulnerability matrix for birds that consists of an exposure-index and a trait-index developed by Hof et al (2017) to assess 1) the species' extent of exposure to climate change by predicting the impact of climate change on their current and future potential geographic distribution ranges and subsequently classifying their vulnerability on an exposure-based index, and 2) the species' adaptive capacity and sensitivity to climate change by using a natural-history trait-based vulnerability index.…”
