Fig. 4: The influence of species’ elevational range sizes on projected area changes following modeled elevational range shifts.
From: Topography and human pressure in mountain ranges alter expected species responses to climate change
a Mean and standard error percentage of change in projected total (gray) and intact (red) land area across all modeled species (within elevational range size classes, x-axis) and all mountain ranges by mountain classification. b Proportion of mountain ranges where percentage of change in intact land area equals or exceeds percentage of change in total land area following elevational range shifts across the elevational gradient by mountain classification. Blue lines indicate proportions for each elevational range size class considered in modeling (100–4000 m, in 100-m increments); red line indicates the mean response across all range class sizes. See text and “Methods” section for details of modeled range shifts.
