Model averaging in ecology: A review of Bayesian, information‐theoretic, and tactical approaches for predictive inference
CF Dormann, JM Calabrese… - Ecological …, 2018 - Wiley Online Library
In ecology, the true causal structure for a given problem is often not known, and several
plausible models and thus model predictions exist. It has been claimed that using weighted …

Empirical evidence of density‐dependence in populations of large herbivores
Density‐dependence is a key concept in population dynamics. Here, we review how body
mass and demographic parameters vary with population density in large herbivores. The …

[HTML][HTML] Underestimating the challenges of avoiding a ghastly future
We report three major and confronting environmental issues that have received little
attention and require urgent action. First, we review the evidence that future environmental …

Large mammal population declines in Africa's protected areas
Protected areas (PAs) are the cornerstone of global conservation efforts but their
performance in maintaining populations of their key species remains poorly documented …

Advancing understanding and prediction in multiple stressor research through a mechanistic basis for null models
RB Schäfer, JJ Piggott - Global Change Biology, 2018 - Wiley Online Library

The predator-prey power law: Biomass scaling across terrestrial and aquatic biomes
INTRODUCTION A surprisingly general pattern at very large scales casts light on the link
between ecosystem structure and function. We show a robust scaling law that emerges …

Declining wild salmon populations in relation to parasites from farm salmon
Rather than benefiting wild fish, industrial aquaculture may contribute to declines in ocean
fisheries and ecosystems. Farm salmon are commonly infected with salmon lice …

Dangerously few liaisons: a review of mate-finding Allee effects
In this paper, we review mate-finding Allee effects from ecological and evolutionary points of
view. We define 'mate-finding'as mate searching in mobile animals, and also as the meeting …
