Spatially synchronized fluctuations in system state are common in physical and biological
systems ranging from individual atoms to species as diverse as viruses, insects and …

Ecology Letters (2011) 14: 163–168 Abstract Spatially separated populations of many
species fluctuate synchronously. Synchrony typically decays with increasing interpopulation …

Population cycles that persist in time and are synchronized over space pervade ecological
systems, but their underlying causes remain a long-standing enigma,,,,,,,,,,. Here we …

Predator–prey cycles rank among the most fundamental concepts in ecology, are predicted
by the simplest ecological models and enable, theoretically, the indefinite persistence of …

While spatial synchrony of oscillating populations has been observed in many ecological
systems, the causes of this phenomenon are still not well understood. The most common …

Northern vole populations exhibit large-scale, spatially synchronous population dynamics,.
Such cases of population synchrony provide excellent opportunities for distinguishing …

Patterns of spatial synchrony of population dynamics are dramatic phenomena that provide
the potential for unraveling forces controlling the dynamics of natural populations in time and …

The behavioural rhythms of organisms are thought to be under strong selection, influenced
by the rhythmicity of the environment,,,. Such behavioural rhythms are well studied in …

The engineering of genetic circuits with predictive functionality in living cells represents a
defining focus of the expanding field of synthetic biology. This focus was elegantly set in …

1. Recent theoretical studies on population synchrony have focused on the role of dispersal,
environmental correlation and density dependence in single species. Trophic interactions …
