Process oriented infrastructure for climate-driven forest migration through cities
… barriers. In order to assist forest migration, many efforts have been made to translocate tree species from their native ranges to locations where the climate is projected to be suitable in the future (known as assisted migration). However, there are concerns that such translocations …

SILVER FIR AND ITS PROVENANCES IN A CLIMATE CHANGE PERSPECTIVE
… properly evaluating the usefulness of provenance assisted migration in the National Park forests and providing better management of remnant silver fir natural forests.

Adaptive Silviculture in an urban floodplain forest: exploring functional traits and soil responses for climate ready forests
… into how different tree species respond to assisted migration, community composition, and floodplain dynamics. However, the underlying mechanisms driving these trends remain unclear. In an attempt to identify these underlying mechanisms, we have measured the photosynthetic performance, water …

Preserving Biodiversity for a Climate Change Future: A Resilience Assessment of Three Bay Area Species--Adenostoma fasciculatum (Chamise), Arctostaphylos canescens (Hoary Manzanita), and Arctostaphylos virgata (Marin Manzanita)
… the study area exists in San Mateo County and assisted migration is a potential option to ensure success into the future. Lastly, <em>Arctostaphylos virgata </em>was determined to be <em>en situ </em>refugia, and therefore will likely persist in its current range<em>. </em>Although it is the …

Plant growth responses to winter climate change: from amongand within-species variation to plant-soil interactions
… to warmer temperatures may be improved with assisted migration of better-adapted ecotypes. Secondly, incorporation of within-species variation into models should enable more accurate projections of species distribution changes. Thirdly, preventing extinction and conserving biodiversity can be …

Plant Species and Functional Diversity along Altitudinal Gradients, Southwest Ethiopian Highlands
… should take into account options of human assisted migration across fragmented landscapes and creating dispersal routes for species to track to new thermal niches.

Testing assisted gene flow in restoration of winterfat, Krascheninnikovia lanata, a Great Basin desert shrub
… a strong signal of local adaptation. Though an assisted gene flow strategy could potentially increase genetic diversity in Great Basin populations, our results suggest that more southern populations are not inherently able to survive the conditions in the northern Great Basin, and highlight the …
