{"abstract":[{"lang":"eng","text":"We survey a class of models for spatially structured populations\r\nwhich we have called spatial Λ-Fleming–Viot processes. They arise from a flexible\r\nframework for modelling in which the key innovation is that random genetic drift\r\nis driven by a Poisson point process of spatial ‘events’. We demonstrate how this\r\novercomes some of the obstructions to modelling populations which evolve in two-\r\n(and higher-) dimensional spatial continua, how its predictions match phenomena\r\nobserved in data and how it fits with classical models. Finally we outline some\r\ndirections for future research."}],"has_accepted_license":"1","day":"16","type":"journal_article","user_id":"3E5EF7F0-F248-11E8-B48F-1D18A9856A87","file_date_updated":"2020-07-14T12:45:52Z","publisher":"IOP Publishing Ltd.","intvolume":" 2013","ddc":["570"],"oa":1,"title":"Modelling evolution in a spatial continuum","quality_controlled":"1","publist_id":"3834","pubrep_id":"557","doi":"10.1088/1742-5468/2013/01/P01002","article_processing_charge":"No","ec_funded":1,"citation":{"apa":"Barton, N.
