Additional information
GCH designed the study, obtained the funding, implemented the fieldwork with post-docs and Ph.D students (SF, GS), undertook the data analysis with PM and wrote the paper with input from other authors. Suggested for the first time how migration patterns are shaped by current dispersal of early life history stages rather than innate behaviours. This new paradigm has now been tested extensively by groups worldwide and continues to receive further empirical support.
