In socially influential fields such as elite sport, music, and film, cultural relevance is often invoked as a special moral status that exempts them from genuine emissions reduction. We argue that vis...

RealClimate: Since we have been periodically posting updates since 2009 of climate model output comparisons to observations across a range of variables, we have now set up this page as a permanent pla...

Climatic conditions closer to the species' climatic niche centroid generally resulted in higher population growth in two Mediterranean shrubs, but demographic responses differed between species and w....

In the Iberian Peninsula, enabling recovery may require effective population-level protection. More broadly, down- and de-listing policies should be supported by explicit evaluation of the indirect d...
