Description:
This 2008 article "assess[es] 8 different potential scenarios for the future of the California flora in the face of climate change." The report concludes that "California's varied terrain could cause species to move in very different directions, breaking up present-day floras. However, ... projections also identify regions where species undergoing severe range reductions may persist." Includes figures. From the Public Library of Science (PLoS), a peer-reviewed, open-access, online publication.
