| Outline of Final Research Achievements |
We projected adaptive genetic variations of four species of stream insect under climate change scenarios, using the distributed hydrothermal model and 8 global climate models. We modeled 11-31 selective AFLP loci per species, which were statistically identified to be subject to natural selection. We acquired bias-corrected air temperature and precipitation data of 3 RCP scenarios (CP2.6、RCP4.5、RCP8.5) from the GCMs. Then, these climatic data were used to calculate annual metrics of current velocity, water depth and water temperature using the hydrothermal model. Models describing adaptive genetic variation, which is represented as linear response of allele frequency at each locus under natural selection to environmental predictors, have been constructed based on current hydrothermal variables. Using the models, we estimated future changes of the allele frequency along changing climate gradients.
