The authors consider the influence of seasonal variations on the drift paradox, using a time-periodic integro-differential equation model \[ \frac{\partial u(t,x)}{\partial t}=u(t,x)g(t,u(t,x))-a(t)u(t,x) \] \[ +a(t)\int_{\Omega}k(t,x,y)u(t,y)dy,~ t\geq 0, x\in \Omega. \] They establish upstream and downstream spreading speeds under the assumption of periodically fluctuating environments, and show the existence of periodic traveling waves.
