A new paper demonstrates a clear latitudinal gradient in responses of the Finnish moth communities to warming climate. This work is based on the Finnish #mothmonitoring dataset gathered @syke.fi.
🚨 Just out in Nature Communications from my current work with fantastic collaborators @rececochange.bsky.social !
We show that moth communities are experiencing an overall “warming,” with a clear latitudinal pattern: extinction in the north and colonisation in the south.

Recent community warming of moths in Finland is driven by extinction in the north and colonisation in the south - Nature Communications
As Finland’s climate warms, cold-adapted moths are disappearing in the north while warm-loving species move in from the south. This shift in insect communities highlights the threat climate change pos...
