    Genomic data from high-throughput sequencing can reveal how populations adapt to rapid environmental change. Integrating this with other factors is key to predicting species survival and ecosystem health.

    Area of Science:

    • Ecology and evolutionary biology
    • Genomics
    • Conservation science

    Background:

    • Rapid environmental change threatens global biodiversity and ecosystem stability.
    • Understanding population-level responses is crucial for conservation and mitigation.
    • Genomic tools offer new insights into molecular mechanisms of adaptation.

    Purpose of the Study:

    • To review theoretical and empirical studies on adaptation to rapid environmental change.
    • To highlight the potential of genomic data in predicting adaptation in natural populations.
    • To advocate for integrated models of evolutionary response.

    Main Methods:

    • Review of existing theoretical and empirical literature.
    • Focus on high-throughput sequencing for detecting environmental selection.
