A guide for studying among-individual behavioral variation from movement data in the wild
Animal tracking and biologging devices record large amounts of data on individual
movement behaviors in natural environments. In these data, movement ecologists often view …

Isolation by environment
The interactions between organisms and their environments can shape distributions of
spatial genetic variation, resulting in patterns of isolation by environment (IBE) in which …

Rethinking phenotypic plasticity and its consequences for individuals, populations and species
A Forsman - Heredity, 2015 - nature.com
Much research has been devoted to identify the conditions under which selection favours
flexible individuals or genotypes that are able to modify their growth, development and …

Behavioral plasticity can facilitate evolution in urban environments
Plasticity-led evolution is central to evolutionary theory. Although challenging to study in
nature, this process may be particularly apparent in novel environments such as cities. We …

Costs of dispersal
Dispersal costs can be classified into energetic, time, risk and opportunity costs and may be
levied directly or deferred during departure, transfer and settlement. They may equally be …

Individual dispersal, landscape connectivity and ecological networks
Connectivity is classically considered an emergent property of landscapes encapsulating
individuals' flows across space. However, its operational use requires a precise …

An overview of the evolutionary causes and consequences of behavioural plasticity
EC Snell-Rood - Animal Behaviour, 2013 - Elsevier
I outline how understanding the mechanism of behavioural plasticity is important for
predicting how organisms will respond to rapidly changing and novel environments. I define …

Personality and the emergence of the pace-of-life syndrome concept at the population level
The pace-of-life syndrome (POLS) hypothesis specifies that closely related species or
populations experiencing different ecological conditions should differ in a suite of metabolic …
