Walter Jetz is visiting the lab this week. His seminar is tomorrow at 2pm. Walter works on global biodiversity patterns. We've been discussing applications of wavelets to some of his data.

New paper on neutral diversity in landscape networks
Spatial heterogeneity is an obvious constraint on spatial biodiversity patterns. There is little work however that predicts community turnover as a function of dispersal linkages across landscape. Extending theory from population genetics, we show how different landscape topologies influence beta-diversity. Here's the link.
