Dispersal is a process of central importance for the ecological and evolutionary dynamics of
populations and communities, because of its diverse consequences for gene flow and …

Coral reefs are both exceptionally biodiverse and threatened by climate change and other
human activities. Here, we review population genomic processes in coral reef taxa and their …

Seascape genetics, a term coined in 2006, is a fast growing area of population genetics that
draws on ecology, oceanography and geography to address challenges in basic …

Habitat fragmentation, an important element of current global change, has profound
repercussions on population and species extinction. Landscape fragmentation reduces …

Dispersal is ubiquitous throughout the tree of life: factors selecting for dispersal include kin
competition, inbreeding avoidance and spatiotemporal variation in resources or habitat …

Larval dispersal is arguably the most important but least understood demographic process
in the sea. The likelihood of a larva dispersing from its birthplace to successfully recruit in …

The study of tradeoffs among major life history components (age at maturity, lifespan and
reproduction) allowed the development of a quantitative framework to understand how …

The dispersal of marine organisms can be restricted by a set of isolation mechanisms
including hard barriers or hydrological features. In the Western Atlantic Ocean, the Amazon …

Dispersal is a central process in ecology and evolution. At the individual level, the three
stages of the dispersal process (ie, emigration, transience and immigration) are affected by …

The factors responsible for variation in dispersal distances across species remain poorly
understood. Previous comparative studies found differing results and equivocal support for …
