Individual-based eco-evolutionary models for understanding adaptation in changing seas
Amanda Xuereb, Quentin Rougemont, Peter Tiffin, Huijie Xue & Megan Phifer-Rixey
As climate change threatens species’ persistence, predicting the potential for species to adapt to rapidly changing environments is imperative for the development of effective conservation strategies. Eco-evolutionary individual-based models (IBMs) can be useful tools for achieving this objective. We performed a literature review to identify studies that apply these tools in marine systems. Our survey suggested that this is an emerging area of research fueled in part by developments in modeling frameworks that allow simulation...
Examining Social Desirability Orientation and Alcohol Use Expectations as Factors in Fraternity Drinking

Jaime L. Myers & Pietro A. SassoPhenotype data, genotype input files, and scripts related to adaptation in wild house mice from Western North America
Kathleen Ferris, Andreas Chavez, Taichi Suzuki, Megan Phifer-Rixey, Ke Bi, Michael Nachman & Elizabeth Beckman
Parallel changes in genotype and phenotype in response to similar selection pressures in different populations provide compelling evidence of adaptation. House mice (Mus musculus domesticus) have recently colonized North America and are found in a wide range of environments. Here we measure phenotypic and genotypic differentiation among house mice from five populations sampled across 21° of latitude in western North America, and we compare our results to a parallel latitudinal cline in eastern North America....
