Butterflies adapt their life cycles to climate change
-
A study from the Senckenberg German Entomological Institute Müncheberg and various universities explains that some butterfly species are sighted earlier in the year as spring is arriving sooner in central Europe. During autumn, butterflies fly longer because the growing season of plants and flowers is prolonged. Future studies have to reveal how and how fast these changes affect food web structures and pave the way to new ecological adaptations.

A recent collaborative study between 21 European countries provides new insights into how waterbirds respond to the changes in winter weather conditions at large scale. The study shows that 25 waterbirds species respond to both year-to-year and long-term changes in winter weather conditions, which is evident by the changes in local abundances during winter.
