Abstract: The climate is changing rapidly and natural populations are altering their phenology and geographic distributions in response. Some populations are exhibiting plastic changes in situ; some are evolving; and some are moving. Ecological, evolutionary, and organismal biologists are striving to make accurate predictions re future phenology and distributions. Assessing the respective roles of plasticity and adaptation will be essential. Species and populations that have been studied intensively over time can contribute. My talk will focus on related biology in a songbird, the dark-eyed junco, that I have studied intensively for nearly fifty years.
