Successful validation of a larval dispersal model using genetic parentage data.

open access: yesPLoS Biology, 2019
Larval dispersal is a critically important yet enigmatic process in marine ecology, evolution, and conservation. Determining the distance and direction that tiny larvae travel in the open ocean continues to be a challenge.

Understanding macroinvertebrate metacommunity organization using a nested study design across a mountainous river network

open access: yesEcological Indicators, 2021
Metacommunity ecology highlights the importance of integrating simultaneously environmental filtering and spatial processes, such as mass effects and dispersal limitation, into investigation of community assembly.

Effects of mis-alignment between dispersal traits and landscape structure on dispersal success in fragmented landscapes [PDF]

open access: yesRoyal Society Open Science, 2019
Dispersal is fundamental to population dynamics and hence extinction risk. The dispersal success of animals depends on the biophysical structure of their environments and their biological traits; however, comparatively little is known about how ...

Does scale matter? A systematic review of incorporating biological realism when predicting changes in species distributions. [PDF]

open access: yesPLoS ONE, 2018
There is ample evidence that biotic factors, such as biotic interactions and dispersal capacity, can affect species distributions and influence species' responses to climate change. However, little is known about how these factors affect predictions from

Landscape does matter: disentangling founder effects from natural and human-aided post-introduction dispersal during an ongoing biological invasion.

open access: yesJournal of Animal Ecology, 2020
Environmental features impacting the spread of invasive species after introduction can be assessed using population genetic structure as a quantitative estimation of effective dispersal at the landscape scale.

Dispersal inference from population genetic variation using a convolutional neural network

open access: yesbioRxiv, 2023
The geographic nature of biological dispersal shapes patterns of genetic variation over landscapes, making it possible to infer properties of dispersal from genetic variation data.

Experimental evolution of dispersal: Unifying theory, experiments and natural systems.

open access: yesJournal of Animal Ecology, 2023
Dispersal is a central life history trait that affects the ecological and evolutionary dynamics of populations and communities. The recent use of experimental evolution for the study of dispersal is a promising avenue for demonstrating valuable proofs of
