Anthropogenic climate change threatens the Earth's biota and human society. By identifying areas that can act as refuges under projected climate conditions, adaptation and conservation activities can be focused where they will provide greatest benefit. This transdisciplinary project in the Australian global biodiversity hotspot examines the role of granite outcrops as safe havens for species in the face of climate change. Knowing areas where species will retreat and maintain biodiversity under climate change will support decision making for protection of key refuges. Large financial, social and biodiversity returns follow from implementation of effective climate change adaptation management programs in Australian landscapes.

人为气候变化威胁着地球生物群和人类社会。通过确定在预测的气候条件下可以充当避难所的地区，可以将适应和保护活动的重点放在它们将提供最大好处的地方。这个在澳大利亚全球生物多样性热点地区的跨学科项目研究了花岗岩露头在面对气候变化时作为物种安全避难所的作用。了解气候变化下物种将在哪些地区撤退并维持生物多样性，将有助于制定保护关键保护区的决策。澳大利亚实施了有效的气候变化适应管理计划，带来了巨大的财务、社会和生物多样性回报。
