Earlier and more frequent occupation of breeding sites during the non‐breeding season increases breeding success in a colonial seabird
Sign Up to like & getrecommendations! Published in 2022 at "Ecology and Evolution"
DOI: 10.1002/ece3.9213
Abstract: Abstract Competition for high‐quality breeding sites in colonial species is often intense, such that individuals may invest considerable time in site occupancy even outside the breeding season. The site defense hypothesis predicts that high‐quality sites… read more here.

Competition, predation, and the distributions of four desert anurans
Sign Up to like & getrecommendations! Published in 2017 at "Oecologia"
DOI: 10.1007/s004420100727
Abstract: Several studies have shown that larval competition and susceptibility to predation affect distributions of amphibian assemblages across ephemeral and perennial habitats. However, few studies have examined mechanisms affecting distribution patterns and site use of anurans… read more here.

DOI: 10.1007/s13149-016-0519-9
Abstract: Malaria vectors control is essentially based on the use of insecticides against adult mosquitoes. However because of the development of resistance to insecticides, there is now a renewed interest in the management of larval sources.… read more here.

DOI: 10.1016/j.ympev.2020.106733
Abstract: Abstract The Neotropical region harbors an astonishing diversity of species, but still encompasses the least studied biogeographic region of the world. These properties apply for different taxonomic groups, and can be exemplified by drosophilids. In… read more here.

DOI: 10.1155/2018/2575017
Abstract: Here, the propagation of vector-borne diseases is modeled by using a probabilistic cellular automaton. Numerical simulations considering distinct spatial distributions and time variations of the vector abundance are performed, in order to investigate their impacts… read more here.
