A multi-platform package for the analysis of intra- and interspecific trait evolution

Gaboriau, Théo ; Mendes, Fábio K. ; Joly, Simon ; Silvestro, Daniele ; Salamin, Nicolas

In: Methods in Ecology and Evolution, 2020, p. -

Evolutionary forces affect the distribution of phenotypes both within and among species. Yet, at the macro‐evolutionary scale, the evolution of intraspecific variance is rarely considered. Here, we present an r and a BEAST 2 implementation that extends the JIVE (Joint inter‐ and Intraspecific Variance Evolution) model aimed at the analysis of continuous trait evolution at both inter‐...

Backfolded acoustic phonons as ultrasonic probes in metal-oxide superlattices

Lyzwa, Fryderyk ; Chan, A. ; Khmaladze, Jarji ; Fürsich, K. ; Keimer, B. ; Bernhard, Christian ; Minola, M. ; Mallett, Benjamin P. P.

In: Physical Review Materials, 2020, vol. 4, no. 4, p. 043606

Ultrasonics have been an incisive probe of internal interfaces in a wide variety of systems ranging from stars to solids. For thin-film structures, however, ultrasound is largely ineffective because the signal is dominated by the substrate. Using confocal Raman spectromicroscopy, we show that multiple reflection of sound waves at internal interfaces of a metal-oxide superlattice generates...

Evolutionary genomics can improve prediction of species’ responses to climate change

Waldvogel, Ann-Marie ; Feldmeyer, Barbara ; Rolshausen, Gregor ; Exposito-Alonso, Moises ; Rellstab, Christian ; Kofler, Robert ; Mock, Thomas ; Schmid, Karl ; Schmitt, Imke ; Bataillon, Thomas ; Savolainen, Outi ; Bergland, Alan ; Flatt, Thomas ; Guillaume, Frederic ; Pfenninger, Markus

Global climate change (GCC) increasingly threatens biodiversity through the loss of species, and the transformation of entire ecosystems. Many species are challenged by the pace of GCC because they might not be able to respond fast enough to changing biotic and abiotic conditions. Species can respond either by shifting their range, or by persisting in their local habitat. If populations...
