Scaling temperature‐dependent dispersal rates to metacommunity dynamics: An experimental test
Functional Ecology, EarlyView.Read the free Plain Language Summary for this article on the Journal blog. Abstract Changes in community structure under shifting thermal regimes depend on how both local population dynamics and regional dispersal respond to temperature. Processes underlying dispersal, such as movement speed and demographic density dependence, are constrained by ...
