Population Biology Modeling & Theory (PBMT) is a peer-reviewed journal reporting advances in modeling and theory within population biology. Its scope spans demography, ecology, epidemiology, evolutionary biology, population genetics, and phylogenetics. PBMT will be online soon.

Thanks!! :)

Hi! (evolutionary) theoretical ecologists here, particularly concerned with evolution of species' ranges - if you still have space.

You are right! Incidentally, I am just trying to put together a sentence to at least refer to some of the ENM works which I came across (www.pnas.org/doi/full/10....). I take that ENM work comes from ecology, whereas this comes from evolution: coupling evolutionary genetics with population dynamics.

Thanks! Looking forward to questions/comments. Submitting at some point next week..

doi.org/10.1101/2025... - comments welcome!

If you have space, I am interested in species cohesion as much as in speciation; particularly in spatially structured environments.

Thanks!! :)

thanks! Also: @isimova.bsky.social @pavelpayne.bsky.social

I work on models of joint evolutionary (population genetic) and ecological (population) dynamics in spatially and temporally variable environments. If it fits, I'd love to be added too.

The above paper is a classic, well worth a read. Recently, Nick Barton (2024) wrote a detailed overview of the theory of limits to adaptation, focusing on feedback between evolutionary (population genetic) and demographic dynamics, as well as insights from information theory: doi.org/10.1093/jeb/...

One near-tautology well articulated by Janis Antonovics in The nature of limits to natural selection (1976): "Insufficient genetic variability and the swamping effects of gene flow are inadequate [later: "almost tautological"] explanations of limits to natural selection." doi.org/10.2307/2395...

Aww thanks. A nice hike two weeks ago in the Austrian Alps. The pic that you posted is beautiful!
