Climate change is already altering, and will continue to reshape, the persistence and spatial structure of marine populations. Understanding metapopulation connectivity and local adaptation is therefore critical for identifying both vulnerable populations and those with adaptive resilience. We applied a seascape genomics approach to investigate connectivity patterns and adaptive responses in the honeycomb worm, Sabellaria alve...

Aim We investigated how local‐scale environmental heterogeneity influences biodiversity patterns across broad biogeographic gradients, using intertidal microhabitats as a model system within one of the most environmentally stressful ecosystems on Earth. Location Intertidal habitats at 26 locations (two rocky shore sites per location) across six continents, spanning 98° of latitude (38°S to 60°N). Time Period 2019–2022. Major T...

Biological invasions pose a significant threat to local ecosystems and native species worldwide. For macrophytes, the interaction of factors such as native species biomass loss and propagule pressure of invasive species have important consequences for invasion success. How these factors are mediated by below-ground processes is, however, poorly understood. Through a field survey and manipulative experiment, we simultaneously i...
