"In the review, amphibians were found to be moving up slope (poleward) at over 12 metres a year, while reptiles seem to be headed towards the equator at 6.5 metres a year. Insects ... were 18.5 kilometres per year ... marine species were moving towards the poles at an average pace of nearly 6 kilometres per year, while land animals were only shifting upslope at a mean pace of nearly 1.8 metres per year."
