Paper doi abstract bibtex Mediterranean climate is found on five continents and supports five global biodiversity hotspots. Based on combined downscaled results from 23 atmosphere-ocean general circulation models (AOGCMs) for three emissions scenarios, we determined the projected spatial shifts in the mediterranean climate extent (MCE) over the next century. Although most AOGCMs project a moderate expansion in the global MCE, regional impacts are large and uneven. The median AOGCM simulation output for the three emissions scenarios project the MCE at the end of the 21st century in Chile will range from 129-153\,% of its current size, while in Australia, it will contract to only 77-49\,% of its current size losing an area equivalent to over twice the size of Portugal. Only 4\,% of the land area within the current MCE worldwide is in protected status (compared to a global average of 12\,% for all biome types), and, depending on the emissions scenario, only 50-60\,% of these protected areas are likely to be in the future MCE. To exacerbate the climate impact, nearly one third (29-31\,%) of the land where the MCE is projected to remain stable has already been converted to human use, limiting the size of the potential climate refuges and diminishing the adaptation potential of native biota. High conversion and low protection in projected stable areas make Australia the highest priority region for investment in climate-adaptation strategies to reduce the threat of climate change to the rich biodiversity of the Mediterranean biome.
