The study of phylogenetic diversity in marine fishes seeks to quantify the evolutionary relationships among species and lineages, thereby illuminating the processes that generate and maintain ...

How did you get to work today? I walked to the station, caught a train, then walked to a bus stop and hopped on the 891 express. All this time, while I was travelling, I moved in space – in fact a lot ...

As an experiment in online book reading clubs, I will share a series of pieces about a group of scientists that is reading and discussing the book, Island Biogeography Revisited-- are you willing to ...

Biogeography investigates the distribution of species and ecosystems across space, while phylogeography combines this spatial perspective with genetic data to infer the historical processes shaping ...

The International Biogeography Society (TIBS) has relaunched its flagship open-access scientific journal, Frontiers of Biogeography (FoB), on the ARPHA platform, where it will be co-published with ...

An interdisciplinary team of researchers is advocating for convergent research that integrates the fields of biogeography and behavioral ecology to more rapidly respond to challenges associated with ...

This title is part of a longer publication history. The full run of this journal will be searched. TITLE HISTORY A title history is the publication history of a journal and includes a listing of the ...

At a presentation last week, two speakers described their travels. The first presenter described her hike across the French and Swiss Alps. Her photos were beautiful, and the flora and fauna were ...

Island biogeography theory, the idea that fragmented ecosystems have lower species richness per unit of area compared with contiguous habitats, has served as a useful conceptual model to understand ...
