    • The Demographic buffering hypothesis: Evidence and challenges 

      Hilde, Christoffer Høyvik; Gamelon, Marlène; Sæther, Bernt-Erik; Gaillard, Jean-Michel; Yoccoz, Nigel; Pelabon, Christophe (Peer reviewed; Journal article, 2020)
      In (st)age-structured populations, the long-run population growth rate is negatively affected by temporal variation in vital rates. In most cases, natural selection should minimize temporal variation in the vital rates to ...

    • Demographic buffering of vital rates in age-structured populations 

      Hilde, Christoffer Høyvik (Doctoral theses at NTNU;2021:353, Doctoral thesis, 2021)
      Stochastic demography is essential to accurately predict how populations persist in variable environments. In age- or stage-structured populations, the long-run growth rate is negatively affected by temporal variance in ...

    • Efficient use of harvest data: a size-class-structured integrated population model for exploited populations 

      Gamelon, Marlène; Nater, Chloé Rebecca; Baubet, Eric; Besnard, Aurélien; Touzot, Laura; Gaillard, Jean-Michel; Lebreton, Jean-Dominique; Gimenez, Olivier (Journal article; Peer reviewed, 2021)

    • Many lifetime growth trajectories for a single mammal 

      Veylit, Lara; Sæther, Bernt-Erik; Gaillard, Jean-Michel; Baubet, Eric; Gamelon, Marlène (Peer reviewed; Journal article, 2021)
      Despite their importance in shaping life history tactics and population dynamics, individual growth trajectories have only been rarely explored in the wild because their analysis requires multiple measurements of individuals ...

    • Quantifying fixed individual heterogeneity in demographic parameters: Performance of correlated random effects for Bernoulli variables 

      Fay, Rémi; Authier, Matthieu; Hamel, Sandra; Jenouvrier, Stéphanie; van de Pol, Martijn; Cam, Emmanuelle; Gaillard, Jean-Michel; Yoccoz, Nigel G.; Acker, Paul; Allen, Andrew; Aubry, Lise M.; Bonenfant, Christophe; Caswell, Hal; Coste, Christophe; Larue, Benjamin; Le Coeur, Christie; Gamelon, Marlène; Macdonald, Kaitlin R.; Moiron, Maria; Nicol-Harper, Alex; Pelletier, Fanie; Rotella, Jay J.; Teplitsky, Celine; Touzot, Laura; Wells, Caitlin P.; Sæther, Bernt-Erik (Peer reviewed; Journal article, 2021)
      1. An increasing number of empirical studies aim to quantify individual variation in demographic parameters because these patterns are key for evolutionary and ecological processes. Advanced approaches to estimate individual ...

    • Selecting habitat to survive: The impact of road density on survival in a large carnivore 

      Basille, Mathieu; Van Moorter, Bram F. A.; Herfindal, Ivar; Martin, Jodie; Linnell, John Durrus; Odden, John; Andersen, Reidar; Gaillard, Jean-Michel (Journal article; Peer reviewed, 2013)
      Habitat selection studies generally assume that animals select habitat and food resources at multiple scales to maximise their fitness. However, animals sometimes prefer habitats of apparently low quality, especially when ...
