Changing climates are affecting biodiversity and natural systems, causing extinctions, range shifts, and phenological shifts. Efforts to forecast the spatial distribution and magnitude of these effects, however, have focused largely on direct effects of changing climates on species' distributional potential; recent work has considered secondary effects of warming climates via rising sea levels. Here, we present a first integration of the two dimensions of climate change effects on biodiversity, examining joint effects of marine intrusion and climate change on the distributional potential of seventy-six species of Mexican birds. The two phenomena are not related to one another—that is, a species seriously affected by one is not necessarily seriously affected by the other; however, the areas affected within species' distributions by the two phenomena tend to be complementary, compounding the negative effects. These results have implications for planning biodiversity conservation globally. Los climas en proceso de cambio están afectando la biodiversidad y los sistemas naturales, causando extinciones, transformación de escenarios naturales y desviaciones fenológicas. Sin embargo, los esfuerzos para predecir la distribución espacial y magnitud de estos efectos se han centrado en gran medida en los efectos directos de los climas cambiantes sobre el potencial de distribución de las especies; el trabajo reciente ha considerado los efectos secundarios de los climas en calentamiento a través de la elevación de los niveles del mar. Nosotros presentamos en este trabajo la primera integración de las dos dimensiones de los efectos del cambio climático sobre la biodiversidad, examinando los efectos conjuntos de la intrusión marina y el cambio climático sobre el potencial de distribución de setenta y cinco especies de aves mejicanas. Los dos fenómenos no están relacionados entre sí—esto es, una especie afectada seriamente por uno, no tiene por qué serlo seriamente por el otro; sin embargo, las áreas afectadas dentro de las distribuciones de especies por los dos fenómenos tienden a ser complementarias, acumulando efectos negativos. Los resultados tienen implicaciones para planificar la conservación de la biodiversidad globalmente.
