Abstract: Significance A major challenge to global plant restoration is that numerous factors, including land management practices and climate variability, affect plant populations through multiple demographic processes, including establishment and persistence. Few studies have resolved these… read more here.

Abstract: Habitat fragmentation can have negative impacts on migratory organisms that rely on the functional connectivity between growing and breeding grounds. Quantifying the population-level phenotypic consequences of such fragmentation requires fine-scaled tracking of individual behaviour and… read more here.
