thanks chris!!!
would love to be added! scholar.google.com/citations?us...
Importantly, the structure of published Gs *did not* match the structure of G for populations evolving on Gaussian landscapes. Nor did published Gs match those seen under drift. Instead, published Gs were consistent with populations that had evolved on holey landscapes (HLs).

I'm a new Asst. Prof & Curator of Herpetology at San Diego State www.kinseybrock.com I'm recruiting 2 PhD students & 1 MS student to study effects of urbanization on genetic & phenotypic variation in herps. Study systems in the Greek islands, Italy, and southern CA. Great weather, great herps! ☀️🦎🌴

right genus - this one's a paddle-tailed darner. We have this species and one in a diff family at ~5200 ft, ~8600 ft, & ~10700 ft asl. And we caught a bunch that mainly live <5000, as well as a few that only live >8500 ft here in the Rockies. Gonna compare species-level vs pop-level variation
all of which is building on our recent paper in Nature Climate Change with @jameststroud.bsky.socialwww.nature.com/articles/s41...
Upslope migration is a recognized climate change response, but which traits support this migration is unclear. The authors use a global dataset of 807 insect species—flying and non-flying—to show ...
And right now, the awesome postdoc in my lab, Dr. Shel McCain, is using confocal microscopy to look at individual respiratory morphology in high vs low elevation populations
