Three types of rescue can avert extinction in a changing environment
Open accessAbstract
Significance: Preventing extinction of small populations in rapidly changing environments is crucial to long-term preservation of diversity, because the creation of large reserves is often not feasible. An option immediately available to managers is bringing migrants in to increase size or improve genetic composition of populations at risk. We experimentally manipulate different types and combinations of migrants to evaluate which will be most effective in rescuing populations from extinction. We find that migration of numerous individuals can reduce the probability of extinction. However, migration of just a few genetically distinct individuals both reduces probability of extinction and dramatically increases fitness and population size. We suggest managers with limited conservation resources should prioritize genetic rescue over increasing demographic size for small populations.

About these checks
Registry, retraction, Cites and statistics results are computed, not judged, with one exception: a printed reference that no index lists is read once by a model before it counts as a citation error. Claims are extracted by a model and kept only when their quote appears verbatim in the text; each cited source is then checked, with a model’s help, for whether it says what the claim relies on. Those verdicts can be wrong — read the claim’s quote and the cited source before relying on one.
Statistics and arithmetic are recomputed, not judged.
Confidence bands are shown only for fields calibrated on our annotated test set. None is calibrated yet, so no band is shown.
