To be able to cope with climate change, species need to evolve. Demonstrating such evolution in wild populations is notoriously difficult. Replication of a 21-year-old experiment demonstrates that a long-distance migratory songbird has genetically adapted to climate change.
为了能够应对气候变化,物种需要进化。在野生种群中证明这种进化是非常困难的。对一个 21 年前的实验的复制表明,一种长途迁徙的鸣禽已经在基因上适应了气候变化。
