Environmental variability alters and obscures fisheries-induced evolution
Shifts in predation and human harvest often coincide with changes in life history trait distributions in prey populations. These changes may arise via evolution or plasticity, and extrinsic environmental effects may affect such traits. This complexity prompts questions about how trait distributions are shaped by multiple factors' interactions. We hypothesized that food availability and climate…
