Implication

Review examines nonadditive climate and land-use interactions across ecosystems, suggesting strategic land management can buffer biodiversity losses from climate change.

Key Points

To evaluate the mechanisms driving interactive impacts of climate change and land use change on biodiversity, address attribution challenges, and identify conservation risks and management opportunities.
Reviewed mechanistic interaction pathways, including demographic parameters, evolutionary trade-offs, and population persistence thresholds.
Assessed experimental designs and analytical frameworks required to resolve attribution errors in biodiversity projections.
Failing to account for nonadditive interactions skews biodiversity projections and increases the likelihood of ineffective conservation interventions.
Targeted land management can mitigate the adverse effects of climate change by providing vital adaptation pathways for vulnerable species.
