The principles of hierarchical modeling are developed and applied to problems in population, metapopulation, community, and metacommunity systems. The book provides the first synthetic treatment of many recent methodological advances in ecological... JA Royle,RM Dorazio - 《Center for Integrated Data Ana...
114, under the most suitable conditions, the maximum growth rate of the population is called the intrinsic growth rate. 115, succession can be divided into two types: primary succession and secondary succession according to the nature of the matrix. 116, the seasonal variation of biological ...
A systematic review of using population-level human mobility data to understand SARS-CoV-2 transmission Large-scale data on human mobility metrics have been used to gain insights into COVID-19 transmission dynamics, but best practices for use of these datasets have not been established. Here, the...
What is this kind of pop growth called and what are the parameters? This is called logistic growth, as it shows an s-curve shape where the population growth slows at 1/2 of carrying capacity. Parameters of interest might be carrying capacity (K) and the growth rate (r). How have ...
Invasive populations often have low genetic diversity because they originated from a small number of founding individuals. This study shows that in an invasive honey bee, one consequence of low genetic diversity is a reduced rate of population expansion due to serial founder effects at range edges....
In cities that are growing – like Boise, Idaho – vacant and abandoned lots are disappearing quickly as development strives to keep up with population growth.My first Weeds of Boise posttook place at an abandoned Pizza Hut, which has since been demolished and is now the future site of a ...
Raptor population decline rates were significantly more severe in West Africa than elsewhere. In Central, East and southern Africa, there was no significant regional variation in encounter rate trends (χ22 = 0.2113, P = 0.8997; model 4 in Extended Data Table 1), and the median annu...
population size and growth undermining environments do hold. China’s population between 1950 and 2050 will have increased by 160% while India’s population for the same period will have grown by 400% (Lomborg2001, p 47). Both countries recognise they face immense environmental problems that are...
population size and growth rate, and plant-pollinator network architecture all play a role in their vulnerability to extinction. As contemporary insect conservation management is broadly based on species- and habitattargeted approaches, ecological data will be central to integrating management strategies in...
