Difference in [corrected] adaptive dispersal ability can promote species coexistence in fluctuating environments.

Theories and empirical evidence suggest that random dispersal of organisms promotes species coexistence in spatially structured environments. However, directed dispersal, where movement is adjusted with fitness-related cues, is less explored in studies of dispersal-mediated coexistence. Here, we pre...
