Legacy of archipelago history in modern island biodiversity–An agent‐based simulation model
Aim Geological processes of island growth and erosion, in addition to eustatic sea‐level
fluctuations, alter key physical properties of oceanic islands, such as area, elevation and …

A topoclimate model for Quaternary insular speciation
Aim Understanding the drivers of speciation within islands is key to explain the high levels of
invertebrate diversification and endemism often observed within islands. Here, we propose …

The robustness of a simple dynamic model of island biodiversity to geological and eustatic change
Aim Biodiversity on islands is affected by various geo-physical processes and sea-level
fluctuations. Oceanic islands (never connected to a landmass) are initially vacant with …
