Climate change exposes gaps in Europe's protected-area network

Research highlighted by Phys.org finds that climate change is exposing weaknesses in Europe's protected-area network, as shifting species ranges and changing habitats move beyond the boundaries of existing parks and reserves. The report suggests areas designated for conservation may no longer cover the ecosystems they were created to protect, prompting calls to rethink how Europe plans and connects its protected sites.

Why now: New research on how climate change is undermining Europe's conservation areas has drawn attention amid ongoing climate coverage.
