Bumble Bee Probability of Occurrence Responds to Interactions Between Local and Landscape Land Use, Climatic Niche Properties and Climate Change Ecol. Lett. (IF 7.6) Pub Date : 2025-05-27
Tim Newbold, Jeremy Kerr, Peter Soroye, Jessica J. WilliamsInsect biodiversity is changing rapidly, driven by a suite of pressures, notably land use, land‐use intensification and increasingly climate change. We lack large‐scale evidence on how land use and climate change interact to drive insect biodiversity changes. We assess bumble bee responses to interactive effects of land use and climate pressures across North America and Europe. The probability of occurrence
