DOI: 10.1002/1438-390x.12206

Abstract: We analyzed demographic data for the endangered Blue Ridge endemic Liatris helleri (16 years, 6 sites, 982 plants, and 15,697 annual transitions). We recorded survival, growth, flowering, and recruitment. We evaluated effects of poaching, trampling, browsing,… read more here.

recommendations! Published in 2024 at "Ecology and Evolution"

DOI: 10.1002/ece3.10870

Abstract: Abstract Multi‐year and multi‐site demographic data for rare plants allow researchers to observe threats and project population growth rates and thus long‐term persistence of the species, generating knowledge, which allows for effective conservation planning. Demographic… read more here.

recommendations! Published in 2024 at "Ecology and Evolution"

DOI: 10.1002/ece3.11291

Abstract: Abstract In freshwater habitats, aerobic animals and microorganisms can react to oxygen deprivation by a series of behavioural and physiological changes, either as a direct consequence of hindered performance or as adaptive responses towards hypoxic… read more here.

DOI: 10.1002/ece3.11327

Abstract: Abstract Identifying factors that drive variation in vital rates among populations is a prerequisite to understanding a species' population biology and, ultimately, to developing effective conservation strategies. This is especially true for imperiled species like… read more here.

recommendations! Published in 2020 at "Ecology and Evolution"

DOI: 10.1002/ece3.6341

Abstract: Abstract Both mutualistic and pathogenic soil microbes are known to play important roles in shaping the fitness of plants, likely affecting plants at different life cycle stages. In order to investigate the differential effects of… read more here.

DOI: 10.1002/ece3.72248

Abstract: ABSTRACT Characterizing population dynamics in heterogeneous environments requires comprehensive long‐term data. We monitored seven small mammals in replicated sites in a semiarid Chilean thorn‐scrub habitat over 30 years using monthly capture–mark–recapture (CMR) sampling. We applied a… read more here.

recommendations! Published in 2021 at "Ecology and Evolution"

DOI: 10.1002/ece3.7529

Abstract: Abstract The climatic and geological changes that occurred during the Quaternary, particularly the fluctuations during the glacial and interglacial periods of the Pleistocene, shaped the population demography and geographic distribution of many species. These processes… read more here.

DOI: 10.1002/ece3.8759

Abstract: Abstract Nonhuman primates are an essential part of tropical biodiversity and play key roles in many ecosystem functions, processes, and services. However, the impact of climate variability on nonhuman primates, whether anthropogenic or otherwise, remains… read more here.

recommendations! Published in 2022 at "Ecology and Evolution"

DOI: 10.1002/ece3.9414

Abstract: Abstract Large herbivore migrations are imperiled globally; however the factors limiting a population across its migratory range are typically poorly understood. Zambia's Greater Liuwa Ecosystem (GLE) contains one of the largest remaining blue wildebeest (Connochaetes… read more here.

recommendations! Published in 2023 at "Ecology and Evolution"

DOI: 10.1002/ece3.9764

Abstract: Abstract Space‐use and demographic processes are critical to the persistence of populations across space and time. Despite their importance, estimates of these processes are often derived from a limited number of populations spanning broad habitat… read more here.

DOI: 10.1002/ecs2.2746

Abstract: The search for generalizations in the face of complex species–environment interactions is particularly important for minimizing the cost of managing populations of species. We tested whether we could generalize, at various nested scales, the species‐level… read more here.
