We invite submissions to a Special Feature in the American Naturalist on “Genomic forecasting of adaptation under environmental change”. Genomic forecasting is a rapidly growing subfield that aims to improve forecasts of species responses to climate change by integrating genomic data. Although the number of studies reporting genomic forecasts of adaptation under future climate are rapidly accumulating, there is a need for rigorous evaluations of the predictions and their uncertainty. This special feature will integrate developments in theory, methods, empirical case studies, and model evaluation, while inviting open discussion and critical viewpoints on the field of genomic forecasting.
To apply, please submit:
- Name and contact of corresponding author
- Names and contact information of all authors
- A 500-word abstract
- Optional author statement of diversity: please explain how your study contributes to a more inclusive and diverse (broadly defined) community of authors and perspectives published by the American Naturalist
- Timeline for full manuscript draft by October 1, 2024
