Uncertainties in measuring precipitation hinders precise evaluation of loss of diversity in biomes and ecotones - npj Climate and Atmospheric Science

Assessing changes in the distribution of biological communities that share a climate (biomes) is essential for estimating their vulnerability to climate change. We use CMIP6 climate models to calculate biome changes as featuring in classifications such as Holdridge's Life Zones (climate envelopes). We found that transitional zones between biomes (known as ecotones) are expected to decline under all climate change scenarios, but also that model consensus remains low.
