Evolutionary Adaptation in Heterogeneous and Changing Environments.

Abstract excerpt

Organisms that are adapting to long-term environmental change almost always deal with multiple environments and trade-offs that affect their optimal phenotypic strategy. Here, we combine the idea of repeated variation or heterogeneity, like seasonal shifts, with long-term directional dynamics. Using the framework of fitness sets, we determine the dynamics of the optimal phenotype in two competing environments...
