Genetic variation, which is generated by mutation, recombination and gene flow, can reduce
the mean fitness of a population, both now and in the future. This 'genetic load'has been …

Climate change is a threat to biodiversity. One way that this threat manifests is through
pronounced shifts in the geographical range of species over time. To predict these shifts …

Under climate change, species unable to track their niche via range shifts are largely reliant
on genetic variation to adapt and persist. Genomic vulnerability predictions are used to …

All life forms across the globe are experiencing drastic changes in environmental conditions
as a result of global climate change. These environmental changes are happening rapidly …

Multivariate climate change presents an urgent need to understand how species adapt to
complex environments. Population genetic theory predicts that loci under selection will form …

In an epoch of rapid environmental change, understanding and predicting how biodiversity
will respond to a changing climate is an urgent challenge. Since we seldom have sufficient …

Detecting the extrinsic selective pressures shaping genomic variation is critical for a better
understanding of adaptation and for forecasting evolutionary responses of natural …

Insects constitute vital components of ecosystems. There is alarming evidence for global
declines in insect species diversity, abundance, and biomass caused by anthropogenic …

Complex statistical methods are continuously developed across the fields of ecology,
evolution, and systematics (EES). These fields, however, lack standardized principles for …

The conservation of biodiversity from the genetic to the community levels is fundamental for
the continual provision of ecosystem services (ES), the benefits that ecosystems provide to …
