@hankgreen.bsky.social Unrelated, but my best friend is the Montana state bat bio and wants to email you! Let me know where they should send it.

I have one connectivityandconservation.com/prospective-...

(4/4) By concentrating on local abundance, widespread and rapid adoption of this framework is achievable to improve conservation outcomes and allocate resources most effectively

(3/4) Using data on species’ abundance distributions along environmental gradients is encouraged to assess and forecast the movement of range limits

(2/4) Despite improved understanding of the factors limiting species’ distributions, robust methods to accurately forecast range shifts at local scales are still lacking

(1/4) In a nutshell:
The rate of contemporary climate change is forcing many species to shift their distributions rather than adapt in situ
