DOI: 10.1007/s00227-017-3259-x
Abstract: Range shifts as a result of warming oceans call for evaluation of populations at the geographic range level, particularly for highly vulnerable species such as endemics and fisheries targets. We examined the influence of latitudinal… read more here.

DOI: 10.1016/j.ijpara.2020.10.002
Abstract: Many species have experienced dramatic changes in both geographic range and population sizes in recent history. Increases in the geographic range or population size of disease vectors have public health relevance as these increases often… read more here.

The effects of geographic range size and abundance on extinction during a time of “sluggish”' evolution
Sign Up to like & getrecommendations! Published in 2021 at "Paleobiology"
DOI: 10.1017/pab.2020.52
Abstract: Abstract. Geographic range size and abundance are important determinants of extinction risk in fossil and extant taxa. However, the relationship between these variables and extinction risk has not been tested extensively during evolutionarily “quiescent” times… read more here.

Geographic range size, water temperature, and extrinsic threats predict the extinction risk in global cetaceans
Sign Up to like & getrecommendations! Published in 2022 at "Global Change Biology"
DOI: 10.1111/gcb.16385
Abstract: Despite the fact that cetaceans provide significant ecological contributions to the health and stability of aquatic ecosystems, many are highly endangered with nearly one‐third of species assessed as threatened with extinction. Nevertheless, to date, few… read more here.

An approach for identifying cryptic barriers to gene flow that limit species' geographic ranges
Sign Up to like & getrecommendations! Published in 2017 at "Molecular Ecology"
DOI: 10.1111/mec.13939
Abstract: Species' geographic range limits are most often not demarcated by obvious dispersal barriers. Poor‐quality habitat at the edge of a species' range can prevent range expansion by preventing outward migration or through reducing adaptive potential… read more here.

Genome size versus geographic range size in birds
Sign Up to like & getrecommendations! Published in 2021 at "PeerJ"
DOI: 10.7717/peerj.10868
Abstract: Why do some species occur in small, restricted areas, while others are distributed globally? Environmental heterogeneity increases with area and so does the number of species. Hence, diverse biotic and abiotic conditions across large ranges… read more here.
