Eco‐evolutionary dynamics of communities and ecosystems
Abstract
Summary: We review theoretical and empirical studies to identify instances where evolutionary processes significantly affect the dynamics of populations, communities and ecosystems. Early theoretical work on eco‐evolutionary dynamics was concerned with the effect of (co)evolution on the stability of two‐species predator–prey systems and the occurrence of character displacement in simple competitive systems. Today's theoretical ecologists are extending this work to study the eco‐evolutionary dynamics of multispecies communities and the functioning and evolutionary emergence of ecosystems. In terms of methodology, eco‐evolutionary modelling has diversified from simple, locus‐based population genetic models to encompass models of clonal selection, quantitative trait dynamics and adaptive dynamics. The few empirical studies on community dynamics that explicitly considered evolutionary processes support the view that evolutionary and ecological dynamics often occur on similar time‐scales, and that they co‐determine the dynamical behaviour of ecological communities.

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.
