Islands

Why Study Islands?
Climate change, sea level change,vulcanism
Selection against hybrids
Good dispersal
Speziale and Ezcurva 2012
Immigration rate decreases as species increase and extinction rate increase as species increase
Selection against immigrants
Varied geology similar to nearby continent
Nestedness
Immigration, Speciation and Island Life Cycle
Kreft et al 2008
Whittaker et al. 2010
Neoendemics
Allopatric speciation, more remote, less species can disperse there. More endemics
Remoteness
Disharmony
Poor dispersal
Sweepstake- flying, floating,weather
Species must establish after dispersal e.g. Speziale and Ezcurva 2012
Tend to have high cation exchange and phosphorus retention
Taxon cycle
80% of extinctions over past 400 years were island species
Whittaker et al 2007
Opportunity drives, speciation rate, speciation rate related to island life cycle.
Paleoendemics
Species disappearing from survey to survey
Mostly volcanic rocks, Basaltic/Andesitic
Adaptive radiation
For last 700ka sea levels similar to today, but for 10ka of every 100ka years sea levels dropped so much that isolated islands become connected.

For last 700ka sea levels similar to today, but for 10ka of every 100ka years sea levels dropped so much that isolated islands become connected.
Allows simplification of the world
Who was the GDM created by
Climate change, sea level change,vulcanism
Selection against hybrids
Good dispersal
Speziale and Ezcurva 2012
Immigration rate decreases as species increase and extinction rate increase as species increase
Selection against immigrants
Varied geology similar to nearby continent
Nestedness
Immigration, Speciation and Island Life Cycle
Kreft et al 2008
Whittaker et al. 2010
Neoendemics
Allopatric speciation, more remote, less species can disperse there. More endemics
Remoteness
Disharmony
Poor dispersal
Sweepstake- flying, floating,weather
Species must establish after dispersal e.g. Speziale and Ezcurva 2012
Tend to have high cation exchange and phosphorus retention
Taxon cycle
80% of extinctions over past 400 years were island species
Whittaker et al 2007
Opportunity drives, speciation rate, speciation rate related to island life cycle.
Paleoendemics
Species disappearing from survey to survey
Mostly volcanic rocks, Basaltic/Andesitic
Adaptive radiation
For last 700ka sea levels similar to today, but for 10ka of every 100ka years sea levels dropped so much that isolated islands become connected.
