Agricultural intensification during the Late Holocene rather than climatic aridification drives the population dynamics and the current conservation status of Microtus cabrerae, an endangered Mediterranean rodent

2018-02-01

Abstract excerpt

AIM: Disentangling the relative importance of climatic and anthropogenic factors is crucial in conservation biology but problematic using short‐term data only. Long‐term (palaeobiological) data are thus increasingly being used to understand taxon history and to identify potential status and baseline (pre‐anthropogenic) conditions, which in turn allows the optimization of species conservation plans. We combined spe...
