The spreading of individuals throughout suitable habitat within or outside the population range. In a more restricted sense, the movement of young animals away from their point of origin to locations where they will live at maturity.
The process or result of organisms spreading from one place to another.
or Disperse)—the spread of a species, population, or individual’s offspring over time.
The movement of a young bird from the site where it hatched to the site where it will breed. Natal dispersal is the permanent movement of young birds from their birth sites to their own breeding locations. The tendency to stay near one's birthplace - called philopatry - increases the probability of breeding with near relatives, even siblings, and thus increases the risk of inbreeding. Conversely, dispersal promotes outbreeding.
Movement of individuals away from the place of birth
Movement of an animal away from its previous home range. Often refers to the movement of a young animal away from the home range where it was born when it matures.
The movement of organisms to new areas of habitat.
The normal movement of offspring to new homes once they become mature enough to survive.
The spreading of individuals away from each other, e.g. of offspring from their parents and from regions of high density to regions of lower density.
Spread of a pathogen within an area of its graphical range. ( 20)
