“…These models have shown that human socio‐economic and demographic patterns and processes are reflected in infrastructure and other abiotic and biotic features of the urban ecosystem (Schaider, Swetschinski, Campbell, & Rudel, 2019; Tessum et al, 2019). Urban evolution research has simultaneously revealed that these same physical and biological characteristics can influence both the adaptive (Brans & De Meester, 2018; Whitehead et al, 2017) and nonadaptive (Combs et al, 2018; Munshi‐South, 2012) evolution of urban species. Indeed, recent work has shown that urban predictor variables that characterize socio‐economic heterogeneity, such as urban heat islands (Brans & De Meester, 2018) and environmental pollutants (Isaksson, 2015; Reid et al, 2016; Wirgin et al, 2011), can drive physiological and life‐history adaptations in organisms.…”
