Abstract excerpt
Empirical understanding of dispersal evolution is limited, due in large part to the complexity of the dispersal process and the difficulty of quantifying dispersal directly. To move ahead, it may help to focus on universal dispersal traits: propensity-the discrete emigration response distinguishing dispersers from non-dispersers-and distance. In particular, little is known about the evolution of dispersal...
