Sentence examples for moving climate windows from inspiring English sources

This implies that the evolution towards higher dispersal distances will be easier in populations that occupy a large distribution range or face lower dispersal costs, thereby allowing individuals to keep track of faster moving climate windows.

In our model, the only difference between an invasion and a range shift with a moving climate window is the presence of two extra boundaries in a shifting climate window, thereby limiting the population's spread.

In accordance with Pease et al. (1989), we showed that a larger distance between the leading and the trailing edge of the climate window allowed the populations to keep track of a faster moving climate window.

A moving climate can have dramatic effects on the size and form of the population profile.

We moved the climate window at two grids cells/time step and used a gap width of seven grid cells.

This simulation slightly differed from the base model as we did not move the climate window during the first 500 time steps, allowing us to check how this affects the results.

Even after the distribution of genotypes has stabilized, a remarkably large standing genetic variation in dispersal distance alleles remains, ranging from the least dispersive genotype that can tolerate a climate window moving at two grid cells/time step (δ = ±2.7 see Fig. 1A and Fig. 5 at t = 700) to much more dispersive genotypes.

When the climate window moves slowly, short dispersal distances evolve and the trailing edge accounts for almost 100% of deaths, while at higher rates of climate change, and the subsequent evolved high dispersal distances, mortality due to crossing the leading or side edges becomes more substantial (Fig. 2).

In the latter, there are changeable size moving windows that consist of window position genes and window width genes.

The opposite was true for a smaller climate window.

Sensitivity analyses according to landscape and climate window properties.
