An integrated population model for a long-lived ungulate: more efficient data use with Bayesian methods
(Journal article, 2015)We develop an integrated population model for Svalbard reindeer Rangifer tarandus platyrhynchus, and demonstrate how this type of model can be used to extract more information from the data and separate different sources ... -
Bryophytes dominate plant regulation of soil microclimate in alpine grasslands
(Peer reviewed; Journal article, 2023)Soil temperature and moisture are important regulators of a broad range of biotic and abiotic processes in terrestrial ecosystems. Vegetation can, in turn, play a role in regulating soil microclimate, which creates potential ... -
Demographic influences of translocated individuals on a resident population of house sparrows
(Journal article; Peer reviewed, 2017)Translocation of individuals from source populations to augment small populations facing risk of extinction is an important conservation tool. Here we examine sex-specific differences between resident and translocated house ... -
Determinants of age at first reproduction and lifetime breeding success revealed by full paternity assignment in a male ungulate
(Journal article; Peer reviewed, 2018)Age at first reproduction is an important determinant of individual variation in reproductive success in ungulates, but few studies have examined its relationship with later fitness‐related traits in males. We used a ... -
Litter type and termites regulate root decomposition across contrasting savanna land-uses
(Journal article; Peer reviewed, 2018)Decomposition is a vital ecosystem process, increasingly modified by human activity. Theoretical frameworks and empirical studies that aim to understand the interplay between human land-use, macro-fauna and decomposition ... -
On fitness and partial migration in a large herbivore – migratory moose have higher reproductive performance than residents
(Journal article; Peer reviewed, 2016)Partially migratory populations comprise both resident and migratory individuals. Th ese tactics may coexist if their demographic contribution to future generations (i.e. fitness) are equal or vary temporally with environmental ... -
The paradox of searching efficiency or why are violent population cycles so uncommon in terrestrial ecosystem
(Peer reviewed; Journal article, 2023)The searching efficiency of predators depends on the balance between the adaptations of the predator and the counter-adaptations of the prey. In this evolutionary race, the prey should normally have the upper hand, as it ... -
Testing the effect of quantitative genetic inheritance in structured models on projections of population dynamics
(Peer reviewed; Journal article, 2019)Global climate change is altering the timing of life history events for species living in seasonal environments. These shifts in phenology can lead to the disruption of interspecific relationships with implications for ... -
Why don't all species overexploit?
(Peer reviewed; Journal article, 2021)Overexploitation of natural resources is often viewed as a problem characteristic of only the human species. However, any species could evolve a capacity to overexploit its essential resources through natural selection and ...
