In this paper, we consider a reaction-diffusion equation that models the time-almost periodic response to climate change within a straight, infinite cylindrical domain. The shifting edge of the habitat is characterised by a time-almost periodic function, reflecting the varying pace of environmental changes. Note that the principal spectral theory is an important role to study the dynamics of reaction-diffusion equations in time heterogeneous environment. Initially, for time-almost periodic parabolic equations in finite cylindrical domains, we develop the principal spectral theory of such equations with mixed Dirichlet–Neumann boundary conditions. Subsequently, we demonstrate that the approximate principal Lyapunov exponent serves as a definitive threshold for species persistence versus extinction. Then, the existence, exponential decay and stability of the forced wave solutions
$U(t,x_{1},y)=V\left (t,x_{1}-\int ^{t}_{0}c(s)ds,y\right )$ are established. Additionally, we analyse how fluctuations in the shifting speed affect the approximate top Lyapunov exponent.
