      Biological responses to climate change have been widely documented across taxa and regions, but it remains unclear whether species are maintaining a good match between phenotype and environment, i.e. whether observed trait ...

      Culina, Antica; Adriaensen, Frank; Bailey, Liam D.; Burgess, Malcolm; Charmantier, Anne; Cole, Ella F; Eeva, Tapio; Matthysen, Erik; Nater, Chloe Rebecca; Sheldon, Ben C.; Sæther, Bernt-Erik; Vriend, Stefan J.G.; Zajkova, Zuzana; Adamik, Peter; Aplin, Lucy M.; Angulo, Elena; Artemyev, Alexandr; Barba, Emilio; Barišić, Sanja; Belda, Eduardo; Bilgin, Cemal Can; Bleu, Josefa; Both, Christiaan; Bouwhuis, Sandra; Branston, Claire J.; Broggi, Juli; Burke, Terry; Bushuev, Andrey; Camacho, Carlos; Campobello, Daniela; Canal, David; Cantarero, Alejandro; Caro, Samuel P.; Chaine, Alexis; Cauchoix, Maxime; Cichoń, Mariusz; Ćiković, Davor; Cusimano, Camillo A.; Deimel, Caroline; Dhondt, André A.; Dingemanse, Niels J.; Doligez, Blandine; Doutrelant, Claire; Drobniak, Szymon M.; Dubiec, Anna; Eens, Marcel; Erikstad, Kjell E; Espín, Silvia; Farine, Damien R.; Mennerat, Adele (Peer reviewed; Journal article, 2020)
      The integration and synthesis of the data in different areas of science is drastically slowed and hindered by a lack of standards and networking programmes. Long‐term studies of individually marked animals are not an ...
    • Demographic measures of an individual's "pace of life": fecundity rate, lifespan, generation time, or a composite variable? 

      Araya-Ajoy, Yimen; Bolstad, Geir Hysing; Brommer, Jon; Careau, Vincent; Dingemanse, Niels J.; Wright, Jonathan (Journal article; Peer reviewed, 2018)
      Comparative analyses have demonstrated the existence of a ^pace-of-life^ (POL) continuum of life-history strategies, from fastreproducing short-lived species to slow-reproducing long-lived species. This idea has been ...
    • Describing posterior distributions of variance components: Problems and the use of null distributions to aid interpretation 

      Pick, Joel; Kasper, Claudia; Allegue, Hassen; Dingemanse, Niels J.; Dochtermann, Ned A.; Laskowski, Kate L.; Lima, Marcos R.; Schielzeth, Holger; Westneat, David F.; Wright, Jonathan; Araya Ajoy, Yimen Gerardo (Peer reviewed; Journal article, 2023)
      1. Assessing the biological relevance of variance components estimated using Markov chain Monte Carlo (MCMC)-based mixed-effects models is not straightforward. Variance estimates are constrained to be greater than zero and ...
    • Effects of manipulated levels of predation threat on parental provisioning and nestling begging 

      Mutzel, Ariane; Olsen, Anne-Lise; Mathot, Kimberley J; Araya-Ajoy, Yimen; Nicolaus, Marion; Wijmenga, Jan J; Wright, Jonathan; Kempenaers, Bart; Dingemanse, Niels J. (Journal article; Peer reviewed, 2019)
      Parental provisioning behavior is a major determinant of offspring growth and survival, but high provisioning rates might come at the cost of increased predation threat. Parents should thus adjust provisioning activity ...
    • Life-history evolution under fluctuating density-dependent selection and the adaptive alignment of pace-of-life syndromes 

      Wright, Jonathan; Bolstad, Geir Hysing; Araya-Ajoy, Yimen; Dingemanse, Niels J. (Journal article; Peer reviewed, 2018)
      We present a novel perspective on life-history evolution that combines recent theoretical advances in fluctuating density-dependent selection with the notion of pace-of-life syndromes (POLSs) in behavioural ecology. These ...
    • Provisioning tactics of great tits (Parus major) in response to long-term brood size manipulations differ across years 

      Mathot, Kimberley J; Olsen, Anne-Lise; Mutzel, Ariane; Araya-Ajoy, Yimen; Nicolaus, Marion; Westneat, David F.; Wright, Jonathan; Kempenaers, Bart; Dingemanse, Niels J. (Journal article; Peer reviewed, 2017)
      Parents provisioning their offspring can adopt different tactics to meet increases in offspring demand. In this study, we experimentally manipulated brood demand in free living great tits (Parus major) via brood size ...
    • Robustness of linear mixed-effects models to violations of distributional assumptions 

      Schielzeth, Holger; Dingemanse, Niels J.; Nakagawa, Shinichi; Westneat, David F.; Allegue, Hassen; Teplitsky, Céline; Réale, Denis; Dochtermann, Ned A.; Garamszegi, László Zsolt; Araya-Ajoy, Yimen (Peer reviewed; Journal article, 2020)
      Linear mixed-effects models are powerful tools for analysing complex datasets with repeated or clustered observations, a common data structure in ecology and evolution. Mixed-effects models involve complex fitting procedures ...
    • Sources of (co)variation in alternative siring routes available to male great tits (Parus major) 

      Araya-Ajoy, Yimen; Kuhn, Sylvia; Mathot, Kimberley J; Mouchet, Alexia; Mutzel, Ariane; Nicolaus, Marion; Wijmenga, Jan J; Kempenaers, Bart; Dingemanse, Niels J. (Journal article; Peer reviewed, 2016)
      Males of socially monogamous species can increase their siring success via within-pair and extra-pair fertilizations. In this study, we focused on the different sources of (co)variation between these siring routes, and ...
    • The biology hidden inside residual within-individual phenotypic variation 

      Westneat, David; Wright, Jonathan; Dingemanse, Niels J. (Journal article; Peer reviewed, 2015)
      Phenotypes vary hierarchically among taxa and populations, among genotypes within populations, among individuals within genotypes, and also within individuals for repeatedly expressed, labile phenotypic traits. This hierarchy ...
