Bergmann's rule and climate change revisited: disentangling environmental and genetic responses in a wild bird population.

abstract：:It is a well known fact that stirring keeps particles suspended in fluids. This is apparent, for instance, when shaking medicine flasks, when agitating tea deposits in a mug, or when heavy winds fill the air with dust particles. The commonplace nature of such observations makes it easy to accept that this feature will...
