The analysis in specific territorial contexts allows us to evidence sustainability as a language in action that is transformed to enable the implementation of the rights of Nature.

In Canada, 77 % of reptile species are considered at risk, especially near the Canada-U.S. border, where most species are at the northern range limit and where land use changes have been most pronounced. Climate change is expected to impact reptiles in this region, including snakes; however, how it will interact with land use change to affect snake distributions remains uncertain. Here, we used ensemble models, derived from three different SDM models, to investigate the potential effects of climate-land cover/use interactions on the future distribution of range-edge populations of a large threatened colubrid in Canada, Gray ratsnakes (<em>Pantherophis spiloides</em>). We showed climate and land cover/use change have an antagonistic effect on future environmental suitability, with greater net gains in suitability from climate alone (37–85 %) compared to gains from the combined model (35–81 %). Our study revealed that climate change may benefit temperate snakes, like gray ratsnakes, leading to a northward range-edge shift, but land use change may prevent colonization of new areas and persistence in areas of their current range. Our models showed that the Frontenac Arch is projected to be a key region for gray ratsnake persistence under climate change as it will mostly remain suitable due to the forest cover. These findings highlight the need for protection and restoration of habitat to help mitigate the negative effects of climate change for ratsnakes and many other similar species in Canada.</div></div>","PeriodicalId":100260,"journal":{"name":"Climate Change Ecology","volume":"10 ","pages":"Article 100103"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2025-11-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"145617407","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

In snakes, prolonged warmer temperatures and precipitation changes may lead to faster growth and smaller body size. Our goal was to assess how climate change may impact future sizes and growth rates on an endangered pitviper species as a model organism. We hypothesized that climate change-induced shifts in growing season temperature, early growing season precipitation, and snow residence time (SRT) would impact growth rate and asymptotic size in the threatened Eastern Massasauga (<em>Sistrurus catenatus</em>) rattlesnake. We used capture-mark-recapture data from eleven sites across the species’ range to fit a set of non-linear models evaluating the effects of these three climate variables on asymptotic size and growth coefficient in a modified von Bertalanffy growth curve. We found that longer SRT resulted in larger asymptotic size. We also found support for both a negative relationship between SRT and growth rate and a positive relationship between precipitation and growth rate. We averaged all supported models and predicted growth and size in the 2080s under a stabilization (RCP 4.5) and a high (RCP 8.5) emission scenario. Under RCP 8.5, predicted increases in female growth rate ranged from 10 % to 33 %, whereas decreases in female size across sites ranged from 9 % to 17 %. Under this scenario female lifetime reproductive success will decrease, as faster growth is associated with increased mortality, early senescence, and poor offspring quality, and smaller body sizes will result in smaller and fewer young.</div></div>","PeriodicalId":100260,"journal":{"name":"Climate Change Ecology","volume":"9 ","pages":"Article 100091"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2025-07-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"143175445","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"OA","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Plant interactions in all treatments were negative or neutral, never facilitative.
