Taming the terminological tempest in invasion science
Standardised terminology in science is important for clarity of interpretation and
communication. In invasion science–a dynamic and rapidly evolving discipline–the …

Density‐dependent effects on salmonid populations: A review
GD Grossman, TN Simon - Ecology of Freshwater Fish, 2020 - Wiley Online Library
We reviewed 199 published data sets (21 species) to assess the relative frequency of
various density‐dependent processes in salmonids. We examined studies for the presence …

[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 …

Text analysis tools for identification of emerging topics and research gaps in conservation science
Keeping track of conceptual and methodological developments is a critical skill for research
scientists, but this task is increasingly difficult due to the high rate of academic publication …

Gene drive dynamics in natural populations: The importance of density dependence, space, and sex
The spread of synthetic gene drives is often discussed in the context of panmictic
populations connected by gene flow and described with simple deterministic models. Under …

Prevalence and strength of density‐dependent tree recruitment
Density dependence could maintain diversity in forests, but studies continue to disagree on
its role. Part of the disagreement results from the fact that different studies have evaluated …

Density-associated recruitment mediates coral population dynamics on a coral reef
L Bramanti, PJ Edmunds - Coral reefs, 2016 - Springer
Abstract Theory suggests that density-associated processes can modulate community
resilience following declines in population size. Here, we demonstrate density-associated …

Quantifying the contribution of immigration to population dynamics: A review of methods, evidence and perspectives in birds and mammals
The demography of a population is often reduced to the apparent (or local) survival of
individuals and their realised fecundity within a study area defined according to logistical …

Estimating co‐extinction threats in terrestrial ecosystems
The biosphere is changing rapidly due to human endeavour. Because ecological
communities underlie networks of interacting species, changes that directly affect some …

Hydrology and density feedbacks control the ecology of intermediate hosts of schistosomiasis across habitats in seasonal climates
We report about field and theoretical studies on the ecology of the aquatic snails (Bulinus
spp. and Biomphalaria pfeifferi) that serve as obligate intermediate hosts in the complex life …
