Isolation by Distance in Populations with Power-law Dispersal

T. B. Smith, D. B. Weissman

This study shows that long-range dispersal with a power-law distribution changes isolation by distance patterns, leading to power-law decay of identity-by-descent at both large and short distances.

Genetic variation reveals individual-level climate tracking across the full annual cycle of a migratory bird

R. A. Bay, D. S. Karp, J. F. Saracco, W. R. Anderegg, L. Frishkoff, D. Wiedenfeld, T. B. Smith, K. Ruegg

The paper shows migratory yellow warblers track climate niches by correlating wintering and breeding precipitation, with bill size linked to breeding season precipitation and population responses to rainfall.
