Eco-evolutionary biodiversity dynamics in river-lake dendritic networks

The main motivation is to analyze Switzerland-wide fish metacommunity samplings by developing a theoretical framework to discriminate the most important mechanisms driving biodiversity and radiation dynamics at small and large spatial scales; We will also add previous efforts in one-species field samplings and lab work to predict the mechanisms driving  genetic and phenotypic diversification in dendritic river-lake networks.
