DOI: 10.1002/ajb2.1815
Abstract: PREMISE Because of expected range shifts associated with climate change, there is a renewed interest in the evolutionary factors constraining adaptation, among them genetic bottlenecks, drift, and increased mutational load after range expansion. Here we… read more here.

DOI: 10.1002/ece3.9635
Abstract: Abstract Giant clams are ecologically important, benefitting species of all trophic levels. But numerous populations have declined drastically in numbers due to past intensive exploitation that led to their listing in both CITES Appendix II… read more here.

DOI: 10.1007/s00227-021-04005-8
Abstract: Almost nothing is known about the historical abundance of the ocean sunfish. Yet as an ecologically and functionally important taxa, understanding changes in abundance may be a useful indicator of how our seas are responding… read more here.

DOI: 10.1007/s00338-017-1589-2
Abstract: Zooxanthellate corals are threatened by climate change but may be able to escape increasing temperatures by colonizing higher latitudes. To determine the effect of host range expansion on symbiont genetic diversity, we examined genetic variation… read more here.

DOI: 10.1007/s10344-017-1094-5
Abstract: Extralimital movements are of interest to ecologists and wildlife managers alike because they can be used to understand the ecological process of range establishment and to determine if management interventions are necessary. I summarize available… read more here.

Changes in habitat associations during range expansion: disentangling the effects of climate and residence time

DOI: 10.1007/s10530-017-1616-9
Abstract: The distributions of many species are not at equilibrium with their environment. This includes spreading non-native species and species undergoing range shifts in response to climate change. The habitat associations of these species may change… read more here.

Range expansion as an explanation for introgression in European wildcats
Sign Up to like & getrecommendations! Published in 2018 at "Biological Conservation"
DOI: 10.1016/j.biocon.2017.12.009
Abstract: Abstract Introgression between domestic and wild taxa is a conservation issue because it can lead to the genetic extinction of wild taxa. Understanding the causes of introgression is thus a crucial task for conservation biologists.… read more here.

DOI: 10.1016/j.quaint.2020.12.019
Abstract: Abstract Modern human dispersal to Asia is drawing more researchers' attention as more Asian records become available in archaeology, paleoanthropology and genetics. The ecocultural range expansion model, based on ecological competition between archaic and modern… read more here.
