Elucidating biological opportunities and constraints on assisted colonization

Abstract

Assisted colonization is a proposed climate change adaptation strategy. Martin‐Alcόn et al. (Applied Vegetation Science, this issue) report an experiment to evaluate the efficacy of assisted colonization and identify thermal distance as a critical consideration. By extension, we should consider the role that ecological distance and socio‐political distance play within any plan to reduce extinction risk through assisted colonization.
