Assisted colonization

• abstract: Assisted colonization, also known as assisted migration or managed relocation, refers to the act of deliberately helping plant and animal species colonize new habitats when driven out of their historical habitats due to rapid environmental change, especially climate change. All species have some natural capacity to disperse into new habitats and adapt to change, but ongoing climate change is occurring so rapidly that many species are unable to keep pace naturally.
