Geographic isolation refers to the separation of members of a population by a physical barrier, such as a mountain or body of water, which disrupts the gene flow between them and begins the process of speciation. Geographic isolation of a species occurs as a result of physical changes in its natural environment.
One example involves its potential confounding with socioeconomic status. If geographic isolation generates risks for mental disability, then a range of practical interventions could be further developed for the promotion of mental health in isolated localities.
1 Δεκ 2016 · Geographical psychology is an emerging subarea of research concerned with the spatial organization of psychological phenomena and how individual characteristics, social entities, and physical features of the environment contribute to their organization.
9 Μαΐ 2018 · Geographical isolation refers to the physical barriers that exist that keep two species from mating. For example, a species of monkey that is located on an island cannot breed with another species of monkey on the mainland.
17 Μαρ 2009 · Abstract. This article discusses some approaches to the conceptualization of isolation in sociolinguistic research. It argues that isolation is a multifaceted phenomenon with geographic, social and attitudinal implications.
Birds, in particular, are known for their great diversity in these behaviors, and so behavioral isolation is often proposed to be the major driver of speciation. Here, we review empirical evidence to evaluate the importance of behavioral isolation in the early stages of avian speciation.
11 Ιουν 2021 · Speciation caused by geographical isolation. Speciation is the evolutionary process from which new species originate. There are three main recognized modes of speciation: allopatric, peripatric, and sympatric. Here, we will focus on allopatric speciation.
