Organismal movement is ubiquitous and facilitates important ecological mechanisms that
drive community and metacommunity composition and hence biodiversity. In most existing …

The siting of protected areas to achieve management and conservation objectives draws
heavily on biogeographic concepts of the spatial distribution and connectivity of species …

Intraspecific genetic variability is critical for species adaptation and evolution and yet it is
generally overlooked in projections of the biological consequences of climate change. We …

Anthropogenic global surface warming is proportional to cumulative carbon emissions,–; this
relationship is partly determined by the uptake and storage of heat and carbon by the ocean …

The degree to which the distribution of mangrove forests will be impacted by climate change
depends on the dispersal and establishment of sea-faring propagules, which drive forest …

Parasites with low host specificity (eg infecting a large diversity of host species) are of
special interest in disease ecology, as they are likely more capable of circumventing …

Abstract Western Boundary Currents (WBCs) are important for the oceanic transport of heat,
dissolved gases and nutrients. They can affect regional climate and strongly influence the …

Dispersal of benthic species in the sea is mediated primarily through small, vulnerable
larvae that must survive minutes to months as members of the plankton community while …

Approaches to macroevolution require integration of its two fundamental components, within
a hierarchical framework. Following a companion paper on the origin of variation, I here …

Global warming is facilitating the poleward range expansion of plant and animal species. In
the Mediterranean Sea, the concurrent temperature increase and abundance of (sub) …
