Recent studies have revealed the importance of feedbacks between contemporary rapid
evolution (ie evolution that occurs through changes in allele frequencies) and ecological …

Understanding the interplay between ecological processes and the evolutionary dynamics
of quantitative traits in natural systems remains a major challenge. Two main theoretical …

How is trait diversity in a community apportioned between and within coevolving species?
Disruptive selection may result in either a few species with large intraspecific trait variation …

The failure mode risk evaluation results of FMEA are affected by multi-uncertainties. This
paper proposes a risk evaluation methodology for controlling multi-uncertainties in the …

Diversity plays a key role in the adaptive capacity of marine ecosystems to environmental
changes. However, modelling the adaptive dynamics of phytoplankton traits remains …

Identifying key evolutionary strategies that support population persistence remains a
challenging task for biodiversity conservation. Here we assess if animal adaptations to cope …

Ecosystem models need to capture biodiversity, because it is a fundamental determinant of
food web dynamics and consequently of the cycling of energy and matter in ecosystems. In …

Model-based approaches specifically finite mixture models are widely applied as an
inference engine in machine learning, data mining and related disciplines. They proved to …

Eco-evolutionary modelling involves the coupling of ecological equations to evolutionary
ones. The interaction between ecological dynamics and evolutionary processes is essential …

Self‐organised formation of spatial patterns is known from a variety of different ecosystems,
yet little is known about how these patterns affect the diversity of communities. Here, we use …
