Shifts from pulled to pushed range expansions caused by reduction of landscape connectivity

Abstract excerpt

<h4> A bstract </h4> Range expansions are key processes shaping the distribution of species; their ecological and evolutionary dynamics have become especially relevant today, as human influence reshapes ecosystems worldwide. Many attempts to explain and predict range expansions assume, explicitly or implicitly, so-called “pulled” expansion dynamics, in which the low-density edge populations provide most of the...
