Knowing where species occur is fundamental to many ecological and environmental
applications. Species distribution models (SDMs) are typically based on correlations …

Current predictions on species responses to climate change strongly rely on projecting
altered environmental conditions on species distributions. However, it is increasingly …

One enduring question in evolutionary biology is the extent of archaic admixture in the
genomes of present-day populations. In this paper, we present a test for ancient admixture …

This paper discusses the recent progress in understanding the properties of transient
dynamics in complex ecological systems. Predicting long-term trends as well as sudden …

Invasive nonindigenous plant species (NIPS) threaten native diversity, alter ecosystem
processes, and may interact with other components of global environmental change. Here, a …

Biological invasions are caused by human-mediated extra-range dispersal and, unlike
natural extra-range dispersal, are often the result of multiple introductions from multiple …

While the mechanistic links between animal movement and population dynamics are
ecologically obvious, it is much less clear when knowledge of animal movement is a …

Dispersal is fundamental to ecological processes at all scales and levels of organization, but
progress is limited by a lack of information about the general shape and form of plant …

Understanding the movement of species' ranges is a classic ecological problem that takes
on urgency in this era of global change. Historically treated as a purely ecological process …

Invasive species, disease vectors, and pathogens affect biodiversity, ecosystem function and
services, and human health. Climate change, land use, and transport vectors interact in …
