Fig. 2: Degree of apparent local adaptation across European butterfly species, determined by relative sensitivity of population dynamics to local-versus-global climatic anomalies (n = 86).
From: Local adaptation to climate anomalies relates to species phylogeny
Degree of local adaptation is calculated as the difference between the R2 of the model including the climatic anomaly at the local scale (site-specific) and the model including that correspondent climatic anomaly at the global scale (all sites), with positive values (blue points) indicating greater local adaption and orange points indicating greater global adaptation. Letters indicate the climatic variable affecting the species dynamics: T temperature, P precipitation, A aridity.
