  • If the arctic host populations become fragmented due to the northward expansion of southern biogeographic elements, extinction of parasites in small host populations and/or cryptic speciation (isolation events seen in parasites, often only by using molecular methods, that are not evident in host populations) in refugia are likely to follow. Effects of changes in climate and UV radiation levels on structure of arctic ecosystems in the short and long term
  • Adaptation can occur quickly permitting considerable variation within the limits of the species but loss of genetic information is a known continuing process e.g.telemeres; this eventually leads to intersterility within the species but it is not speciation.
