Ecology Letters (2011) 14: 1158–1169 Abstract Understanding how dispersal influences the
dynamics of spatially distributed populations is a major priority of both basic and applied …

Explicit consideration of timescales and dynamics is required for an understanding of
fundamental issues in ecology. Endogenous dynamics can lead to transient states where …

Dispersal is a well-recognized driver of ecological and evolutionary dynamics, and
simultaneously an evolving trait. Dispersal evolution has traditionally been studied in single …

The management and conservation of natural populations relies heavily on concepts and
results generated from models of population dynamics. Yet this is the first book to present a …

The existence of two frequency regimes in a two-dimensional (2D) Rosenzweig–MacArthur
ecological network is debated. The semi-discrete approximation differentiates the two …

Connectivity and rates of movement have profound effect on the persistence and extinction
of infectious diseases. The emerging disease spread rapidly, due to the movement of …

The paradox of enrichment has been studied almost exclusively within communities or
metacommunities, without explicit nutrient dynamics. Yet local recycling of materials from …

The role of a new form of dynamic interaction is explored in a network of generic identical
oscillators. The proposed design of dynamic coupling facilitates the onset of a plethora of …

The majority of known early warning indicators of critical transitions rely on asymptotic
resilience and critical slowing down. In continuous systems, critical slowing down is …

Spatial synchrony in population dynamics can be caused by dispersal or spatially correlated
variation in environmental factors like weather (Moran effect). Distinguishing between these …
