“…Standard methods for dispersal inference typically assume either short-range, diffusive motion [Rousset, 1997, 2000, Robledo-Arnuncio and Rousset, 2010, Ringbauer et al, 2017, Bradburd et al, 2018 (perhaps with recent long-range admixture [Bradburd et al, 2016]) or a small number of discrete demes [Slatkin, 1991, Whitlock and McCauley, 1999, Rousset and Leblois, 2011, Petkova et al, 2016, Al-Asadi et al, 2019, Lundgren and Ralph, 2019. Our results open the way to methods for inferring more general, realistic dispersal patterns.…”
