Demographic consequences of phenological shifts in response to climate change
When a phenological shift affects a demographic vital rate such as survival or reproduction,
the altered vital rate may or may not have population-level consequences. We review the …

Animal life history is shaped by the pace of life and the distribution of age-specific mortality and reproduction
Animals exhibit an extraordinary diversity of life history strategies. These realized
combinations of survival, development and reproduction are predicted to be constrained by …
