Journal of Animal Ecology, Volume 92, Issue 1, Page 158-170, January 2023., 2023 Introducing a statistical framework to estimate standardised dispersal kernels from biased data. The authors found strong evidence that long‐distance dispersal is common among European breeding bird species and across life stages. Their dispersal estimates for 234 bird species can guide selecting appropriate dispersal kernels in range expansion studies

The Journal of Latin American and Caribbean Anthropology, Volume 27, Issue 3, Page 309-327, September 2022., 2022 Abstract This article addresses the issue of Haitian migration in the Caribbean basin from a geodynamic point of view—that is to say, by focusing on the spatial dynamics of migratory flows that integrate societies of origin, settlement, and transit within the same framework.

Journal of Regional Science, Volume 62, Issue 4, Page 913-937, September 2022., 2022 Abstract This paper performs a meta‐regression analysis to derive the role of techniques, data and variable's definition on the effect of the labor‐market determinants on interregional migration. We use Spain as a case of study, a country with heterogeneous and even counterintuitive behavior of internal migration flows to its labor‐market drivers.

The beaten paths effect on patient inter‐regional mobility: An application to the Italian NHS
Papers in Regional Science, Volume 101, Issue 4, Page 945-977, August 2022., 2022 Abstract We study inter‐regional migration flows due to hospital admissions and focus on the impact of migration beaten paths. We estimate a gravity model applied to Italian data for the period 2010–2016. We find that beaten paths have a positive effect on inter‐regional patient flows, with estimated elasticity equal to +0.32%.

Can regional policies shape migration flows?
Papers in Regional Science, Volume 101, Issue 3, Page 515-536, June 2022., 2022 Abstract Our empirical analysis focuses on the effect of regional policies on migration attraction factors in Europe. We employ a regression discontinuity design to assess the causal relationship between the reception of large amounts of public funds and migration flows in the EU‐15 regions. In highly‐subsidised regions, we find a large increase in the

An exploratory analysis of the interactions between the determinants of migratory flows
Papers in Regional Science, Volume 101, Issue 1, Page 163-182, February 2022., 2022 Abstract More than often, studies explaining migration causes centre on economic explanations and minimize other factors' explanatory power. This research aims at creating a comprehensive model of migration determinants taking into account four dimensions: economic, social, cultural, and digital.

Journal of Field Ornithology, Volume 92, Issue 4, Page 388-401, December 2021., 2021 Abstract The value of saline lakes and associated wetlands as habitats in the xeric Great Basin is dependent on having water of sufficient quantity and quality to support wetland‐dependent birds. To inform conservation and management of these habitats, models are needed to link birds and hydrological changes due to climate and human water use.

La migración como determinante de la obesidad infantil en Estados Unidos y Latinoamérica
Obesity Reviews, Volume 22, Issue S5, Octubre 2021., 2021 Resumen La migración internacional tiene consecuencias económicas y en la salud. El proceso de aculturación en el país de acogida puede estar relacionado con la obesidad infantil. Utilizamos el marco conceptual del balance energético comunitario (CEB, por sus siglas en inglés) para analizar la relación entre migración y obesidad infantil en los hogares

Journal of Animal Ecology, Volume 89, Issue 11, Page 2631-2643, November 2020., 2020 The authors demostrate how climate interacts with local demography to determine population fitness and viability. The mechanistic approach taken allowed us to unravel the cascading effects of the annual fluctuations of a major climatic phenomenon over the Atlantic on the vital rates of a wild bird population, and provided the first evidence of wind as ...

Inclusive Language for Exclusive Policies: Restrictive Migration Governance in Chile, 2018
Latin American Policy, Volume 11, Issue 1, Page 42-61, May 2020., 2020 Contemporary liberal democracies have employed exclusive or restrictive language, such as promising stricter border control, to ease domestic concerns about increased immigration, while simultaneously maintaining inclusive outcomes by accepting immigrants to support labor markets or to concur with global norms.
