Abstract excerpt
Weather is an important short-term, local driver of population size and dispersal, which in turn contribute to patterns of genetic diversity and differentiation within species. Climate change is leading to greater weather variability and more frequent extreme weather events. While the effects of long-term and broad-scale mean climate conditions on genetic variation are well studied, our understanding of the...
