How do genetic correlations affect species range shifts in a changing environment?

Ecology Letters (2012) Species may be able to respond to changing environments by a combination of adaptation and migration. We study how adaptation affects range shifts when it involves multiple quantitative traits evolving in response to local selection pressures and gene flow. All traits develop...
