Genetically informed ecological niche models improve climate change predictions

Abstract: Background: Although pelagic seabirds are broadly recognised as indicators of the health of marine systems, numerous gaps exist in knowledge of their at-sea distributions at the species level. These gaps have profound negative impacts on the robustness of marine conservation policies. Correlative modelling techniques have provided some information, but few studies have explored model development for non-breeding pelagic seabirds. Here, I present a first phase in developing robust niche models for highly mobile… Show more

“…Despite the fact that comparative empirical studies at the intraspecific level are lacking for cold-adapted species, equivalent studies across a range of plant groups suggest that taxa occupying a broader niche will be less affected by future climate change than taxa restricted to narrower niches (Thuiller et al 2005, Broennimann et al 2006, Gottfried et al 2012, Duputié et al 2015, Carrillo-Angeles et al 2016. region-or lineage-specific modeling), also demonstrated differential responses at the intraspecific level (Pearman et al 2010, D'Amen et al 2013, Ikeda et al 2017. These lineages may be adapted to local climatic conditions, thus their potential for adaptation to future climatic conditions may vary greatly among them (Hereford 2009, Benito-Garzón et al 2011, Shaw and Etterson 2012.…”

“…However, predicting the extent and directionality of future distributional shifts remains challenging. Moreover, spatial variation in genetic and ecological diversity differentially affects locally adapted populations within species, but such variation has been incorporated in future predictions only recently (Fitzpatrick and Keller 2015, Gotelli and Stanton-Geddes 2015, Moran et al 2015, Hällfors et al 2016, Ikeda et al 2017.

“…Nonetheless, the theoretical models used to predict the consequences of global climate change are developing rapidly and employing an increasingly diverse array of information to forecast changes in population dynamics (Bush et al 2016). For instance, genetically and physiologically informed ecological niche models have recently been developed and are a major improvement, as they incorporate information on population genetic structure and variation in levels of local adaptation into projections of future range shifts (Ikeda et al 2017). Similarly, efforts to make use of spatially explicit population data, such as avian abundance and population trend information generated by the Breeding Bird Survey and Christmas Bird Count, are an important development that can help identify vulnerable local populations (Langham et al 2015).…”

“…Niche-based models are then used to explore potential shifts in species distributions under future climate conditions (Elith, Kearney, & Phillips, 2010;Franklin, 2013). For instance, the most frequently used approaches consider a species as a fixed entity in the modelling process and assume that all the populations respond to changing climate conditions in a similar way throughout the occupied geographical range (Ikeda et al, 2017;Moran, Hartig, & Bell, 2016;Pearman, Guisan, Broennimann, & Randin, 2008).
