Objectives:
(1) Patterns of connectivity.

(1a) Determine the frequency of long distance dispersal.
(1b) Estimate the average dispersal distance for male vs. female migrants of each colony and complex.
(1c) Estimate the connectivity of regions over multiple generations.

(2a) Determine habitat suitable for dispersal among colonies but within complexes.
(2b) Determine the ecological processes responsbile for maintaining connectivity or isolation among complexes and ecoregions.
