High fitness costs of climate change-induced camouflage mismatch.

Ecology letters - 1 Mar 2016

Zimova Marketa, Mills L Scott, Nowak J Joshua

Abstract excerpt

Anthropogenic climate change has created myriad stressors that threaten to cause local extinctions if wild populations fail to adapt to novel conditions. We studied individual and population-level fitness costs of a climate change-induced stressor: camouflage mismatch in seasonally colour molting species confronting decreasing snow cover duration. Based on field measurements of radiocollared snowshoe hares, we...
