BACKGROUND Global aquatic environments are changing profoundly as a result of human
actions; consequently, so too are the ways in which organisms are distributing themselves …

Neoplasms change over time through a process of cell-level evolution, driven by genetic
and epigenetic alterations. However, the ecology of the microenvironment of a neoplastic …

An organism's ability to disperse influences many fundamental processes, from speciation
and geographical range expansion to community assembly. However, the patterns and …

In recent years, scientists have realized that evolution can occur on timescales much shorter
than the" long lapse of ages" emphasized by Darwin—in fact, evolutionary change is …

Music comprises a diverse category of cognitive phenomena that likely represent both the
effects of psychological adaptations that are specific to music (eg, rhythmic entrainment) and …

The study of animal movement has always been a key element in ecological science,
because it is inherently linked to critical processes that scale from individuals to populations …

A growing body of literature seeks to explain variation in range shifts using species'
ecological and life‐history traits, with expectations that shifts should be greater in species …

Connectivity is classically considered an emergent property of landscapes encapsulating
individuals' flows across space. However, its operational use requires a precise …

In most environments, bacteria reside primarily in biofilms, which are social consortia of cells
that are embedded in an extracellular matrix and undergo developmental programmes …

Relationships between traits of organisms and the structure of their metacommunities have
so far mainly been explored with meta‐analyses. We compared metacommunities of a wide …
