The Future of Species (Area of biome loss) 20% of species lose all climate space (extinct under all dispersal assumptions) 53% of species suffer total range displacement (extinct under ‘no dispersal’ assumption) More range lost to climate change than to present land transformation

Species Modeling Proteaceae - displacement risk

Species Modeling - Range Shifts

Field Confirmation

Dynamic Reserve System 343 Protea species from the Fynbos Serruria nervosa Potential future reserve expansions

Protected Areas Working Group Configuration 1 Configuration 2 Configuration 3 Configuration 4 Configuration 5

Collaborative Research Africa plant modeling Andes Biodiversity and Climate Land use and regional climate change
