Life history strategies, which combine schedules of survival, development, and reproduction,
shape how natural selection acts on species' heritable traits and organismal fitness …

To forecast extinction risks of natural populations under climate change and direct human
impacts, an integrative understanding of both phenotypic plasticity and adaptive evolution is …

Animals exhibit an extraordinary diversity of life history strategies. These realized
combinations of survival, development and reproduction are predicted to be constrained by …

In (st) age-structured populations, the long-run population growth rate is negatively affected
by temporal variation in vital rates. In most cases, natural selection should minimize …

The characterization of ecological communities with functional traits allows to consider
simultaneously the ability of a species to survive and reproduce in an environment, its …

Accelerating rates of biodiversity loss underscore the need to understand how species
achieve resilience—the ability to resist and recover from a/biotic disturbances. Yet, the …

Seasonal tropical environments are among those regions that are the most affected by shifts
in temperature and rainfall regimes under climate change, with potentially severe …

Aquatic and terrestrial environments display stark differences in key environmental factors
and phylogenetic composition but their consequences for the evolution of species' life …

Matrix population models (MPMs) are powerful tools for translating demographic and life
history information into a form that can be used to address a wide range of research topics …

Species in extreme habitats increasingly face changes in seasonal climate, but the
demographic mechanisms through which these changes affect population persistence …
