Fast and flexible estimation of effective migration surfaces by Joseph Marcus, Wooseok Ha, Rina Foygel Barber, John Novembre

“…The rate at which genetic similarity decays with distance is often spatially heterogeneous due to variable population processes like genetic drift, gene flow, and natural selection. …”

Individual variation in migratory movements of chinstrap penguins leads to widespread occupancy of ice-free winter habitats over the continental shelf and deep ocean basins of the... by Jefferson T Hinke, Maria M Santos, Malgorzata Korczak-Abshire, Gennadi Milinevsky, George M Watters

“…A goal of tracking migratory animals is to characterize the habitats they use and to interpret population processes with respect to conditions experienced en route to, and within, overwintering areas. …”

Protocol and Practice in the Adaptive Management of Waterfowl Harvests by Fred Johnson, Ken Williams

“…Technical hurdles include the need to develop better linkages between population processes and the dynamics of landscapes, and to model the dynamics of structural uncertainty in a more comprehensive fashion. …”

Effects of multiple sources of genetic drift on pathogen variation within hosts. by David A Kennedy, Greg Dwyer

“…Moreover, previous studies have used genetic data to infer the strength of genetic drift, whereas we test whether the genetic drift imposed by pathogen population processes can be used to explain genetic data. …”

Population dynamics of metastable growth-rate phenotypes. by Lindsay S Moore, Elad Stolovicki, Erez Braun

“…This lack of time-scale separation between the intracellular and population processes calls for a new framework for population dynamics which is likely to be significant in a wide range of biological contexts, from evolution to cancer.…”

Human Capital as a Source of Energy for Rural Areas’ Socio-Economic Development—Empirical Evidence for Rural Areas in Poland by Maria Klonowska-Matynia

“…The obtained research results indicate the existing differences in the spatial distribution of human capital, resulting in a polarization effect in the center-periphery system, and showing relations with the socio-economic structure of rural areas, their agricultural function, and the ongoing population processes. The assumption about the existing relations between the individual components of the structure of human capital, i.e., health and the labor market, with the socio-economic situation of individual communes should be considered correct. …”

Limited population structure, genetic drift and bottlenecks characterise an endangered bird species in a dynamic, fire-prone ecosystem. by Sarah M Brown, Katherine A Harrisson, Rohan H Clarke, Andrew F Bennett, Paul Sunnucks

“…For populations occupying such environments, fire-induced landscape change is likely to influence population processes, and genetic patterns and structure among populations. …”

Long-Term Changes in the Distributions of Larval and Adult Fish in the Northeast U.S. Shelf Ecosystem. by Harvey J Walsh, David E Richardson, Katrin E Marancik, Jonathan A Hare

Scale-dependent effects of a heterogeneous landscape on genetic differentiation in the Central American squirrel monkey (Saimiri oerstedii). by Mary E Blair, Don J Melnick

“…We show that when landscape genetic methods are applied rigorously and at the right scale, they are sensitive enough to track population processes even in species with long, overlapping generations such as primates. …”

Tracking natal dispersal in a coastal population of a migratory songbird using feather stable isotope (δ2H, δ34S) tracers. by Samuel Haché, Keith A Hobson, Erin M Bayne, Steven L Van Wilgenburg, Marc-André Villard

“…Natal dispersal movements revealed here suggest the spatial scale over which many population processes are taking place and we suggest that conservation plans aiming to maintain populations of Ovenbirds and ecologically-similar species should consider management units within 100 or at most 200 km of target breeding populations.…”

Maternal invasion history of Aedes aegypti and Aedes albopictus into the Isthmus of Panama: Implications for the control of emergent viral disease agents. by Gilberto A Eskildsen, Jose R Rovira, Octavio Smith, Matthew J Miller, Kelly L Bennett, W Owen McMillan, Jose Loaiza

“…The geographic origins of these clades is unknown, given that divergence in the mitochondrial genome is probably due to ancient population processes within the native range of Ae. aegypti, rather than due to its global expansion out of Africa. …”

Acclimation to warmer temperatures can protect host populations from both further heat stress and the potential invasion of pathogens by Hector, TE, Shocket, MS, Sgrò, CM, Hall, MD

“…Our results suggest that hosts could benefit more from warming than their pathogens, but only by linking multiple individual traits to population processes can the full impact of higher temperatures on host and pathogen population dynamics be realised.…”
