To inform the best source for this reintroduction, we are testing: (1) whether song sparrows on these islands are genetically differentiated (2) whether they are adapted to the local climate and (3) if so, which source population is best matched to the current and projected future climatic conditions on Santa Barbara Island. Potential sources include extant populations on three northern Channel Islands, which vary dramatically in temperature. National Park Service is proposing to re-introduce Channel Islands song sparrows ( Melospiza melodia graminea) to Santa Barbara Island off the coast of southern California, where the local population went extinct in the early 1960s. Genomics can elucidate patterns of adaptive differentiation, and therefore has the potential to help identify the most appropriate source for re-introduction.
