Climate change triggers poleward shifts in species distribution leading to changes in biogeography. In the marine environment, fish respond quickly to warming, causing …

Although ecology and biogeography had common origins in the natural history of the nineteenth century, they diverged substantially during the early twentieth century as ecology …
Boreal forests represent the world's largest terrestrial biome and provide ecosystem services of global importance. Highly imperilled by climate change, these forests host Earth's greatest …
The evolution of traits involved in ecological interactions such as predator-prey, host- parasite, and plant-pollinator interactions, are likely to be shaped by the phylogenetic history …
Multispecies host-parasite evolution is common, but how parasites evolve after speciating remains poorly understood. Shared evolutionary history and physiology may propel species …

Macroecology was developed as a big picture statistical approach to the study of ecology and evolution. By focusing on broadly occurring patterns and processes operating at large …
How geographically widespread biological communities assemble remains a major question in ecology [1–4]. Do parallel population histories allow sustained interactions (such …
Although parasitic organisms are found worldwide, the relative importance of host specificity and geographic isolation for parasite speciation has been explored in only a few systems …
Biodiversity hotspots and associated endemism are ideal systems for the study of parasite diversity within host communities. Here, we investigated the ecological and evolutionary …
