TY - T1 - North by north-west : climate change and directions of density shifts in birds SN - / UR - http://hdl.handle.net/10138/308648 T3 - A1 - Lehikoinen, Aleksi; Virkkala, Raimo A2 - PB - Y1 - 2016 LA - eng AB - There is increasing evidence that climate change shifts species distributions towards poles and mountain tops. However, most studies are based on presence-absence data, and either abundance or the observation effort has rarely been measured. In addition, hardly any studies have investigated the direction of shifts and factors affecting them. Here, we show using count data on a 1000km south-north gradient in Finland, that between 1970-1989 and 2000-2012, 128 bird species shifted their densities, ...
