Dispersal processes driving plant movement: challenges for understanding and predicting range shifts in a changing world

Dispersal ecology is a broad topical discipline that tackles important conceptual and applied issues, such as the study of the ability of plants to transmit their propagules across fragmented and managed landscapes. The relevance of dispersal for plant populations is threefold because: (i) dispersal...
