The effect of climatic variation on abundance and diversity of bumblebees: a ten years survey in a mountain hotspot
Open accessAbstract
Even if climates play an evident role in the bumblebees distribution, at the present time, no research has been performed to test whether climatic parameters actually affect their abundance and diversity. For more than one decade (1999–2009), we monitored the bumblebee fauna of a mountain hotspot in the Eastern Pyrenees. We sampled each year, in July, the same hayfield habitat, resulting in the sampling of 28 species. We computed the correlation of the yearly abundance of the main species with several climatic parameters concerning temperature and precipitation. We separated the parameters measured during the bumblebee solitary phase and those measured during their social phase. Bumblebee fauna composition varied significantly over years. In the 13 species considered, the abundance of 9 was correlated with at least one climatic parameter. The lowest abundance of bumblebees was correlated with hot and dry conditions during the month of August the year before sampling (the nuptial time of the founders). The highest overall abundance of bumblebees was observed during the social phase in the rainy months. Across years, climatic parameters seem to have strongly affected the composition of bumblebee fauna. Our results seem to indicate that hot and dry weather represent serious threat for most bumblebee species. The potential effects of Global Warming are discussed: they may cause a severe reduction of the mountain bumblebee diversity.

About these checks
Registry, retraction, Cites and statistics results are computed, not judged, with one exception: a printed reference that no index lists is read once by a model before it counts as a citation error. Claims are extracted by a model and kept only when their quote appears verbatim in the text; each cited source is then checked, with a model’s help, for whether it says what the claim relies on. Those verdicts can be wrong — read the claim’s quote and the cited source before relying on one.
Statistics and arithmetic are recomputed, not judged.
Confidence bands are shown only for fields calibrated on our annotated test set. None is calibrated yet, so no band is shown.
