Such mechanisms are influenced by the properties of the landscape over which individuals interact, disperse and evolve. The documentation of high levels of species diversity in complex mountain region or riverine systems suggest that some <strong>peculiar landscape properties foster diversity</strong>. I use mathematical models to investigate how connectivity and habitat heterogeneity foster diversity. My modeling approach complements empirical work on biodiversity by connecting documented patterns to the processes that have generated it.</p> <!-- only necessary when there is no featured publications --> <!-- #### Related papers - Boussange, V. & Pellissier, L., _Topology and habitat assortativity drive neutral and adaptive diversification in spatial graphs_, [bioRxiv](https://www.biorxiv.org/content/10.1101/2021.07.06.451404.abstract) (2021), 25 pages.
