This book was released on 2006 with total page 94 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Habitat edges are an important ecological concept that applies to numerous organisms. Habitat edges are thought to be an area of increased abundance and diversity of animal and plant species. The increased variety and density of species at the intersection of different habitat types constitutes the basis of the "edge effect" concept. The purpose of this study was to examine the influence of edge on the seasonal densities of Microtus pennsylvanicus and Peromyscus leucopus. The hypothesis tested was that small mammal populations should be greater in edge habitats than interior habitats. Study grids were placed in three different habitat types: open field, forest, and field/forest edges. Grids were live-trapped for one week during the spring, summer, and fall to test for seasonal differences. Habitat data was taken in all habitats to test for vegetation differences. Multi-variable analysis of variance (MANOVA) was applied to the data to test for any differences between the variables (species, season, and habitat). White-footed mice made up 87% of the captures in the forested habitat and meadow voles made up 70% of the captures in the old-field habitat. No edge effect was found for either species, however, meadow voles were found in very low numbers 30 m from forested habitats as compared to 30 m from forested habitats. Most of the statistical differences in habitat data came from season and not habitat type. Neither species exhibited any significant population density differences among seasons or habitats. The habitat data taken in the old-field habitats show that percent ground cover, grass/forb height, and appearance of runaways all were important in determining where a meadow vole was captured. The habitat data taken in the forested habitats show that percent canopy cover and shrub height were important in determining where a white-footed mouse was captured, but percent ground cover and fallen log density were not important.

This book was released on 2009 with total page pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Short-lived rodents are sensitive to changes in environmental conditions and exhibit annual fluctuations under seasonal environments in northern temperate regions. I analyzed 34 years of monthly live-trapping data on white-footed mice (Peromyscus leucopus) collected in Carter Woods, Ohio. I used a theoretic-information approach to select the best approximating models and analysis of deviance to infer effects of climate and density on survival of mice. I tested for a cost of reproduction to females and found no difference in survival between reproductive states. Directions and magnitudes of effects of climate and density varied over time. Increased variability in temperature reduced effects of density on survival. I detected an Allee effect and density dependent effects on survival. Long-term trapping data are needed to study temporal effects of climate and density on the demography of rodents. Recruitment had a greater impact on population growth rate than survival.

This book was released on 2013 with total page pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: "The white-footed mouse (Peromyscus leucopus) is a widespread habitat generalist species abundant over a large part of the North-American continent. In the past decade, due to climate and land use change, the range of this species has expanded northwards into Canada. The black-legged tick (Ixodes scapularis), is the vector of Lyme disease which also has tracked climate change over the last few decades. This may have been further promoted by the growing presence of P. leucopus, a favored host for the tick. Therefore, aspects of the landscape that affect the movement and distribution of the white-footed mouse, will also affect the expansion of the tick, and consequently the spread of Lyme disease. In this thesis, I first reviewed published results that relied on genetic and non- genetic biological data to investigate the influence of local habitat and landscape characteristics on the movement and dispersal patterns in the white footed-mouse. Next, I evaluated the relations between breeding habitat and landscape resistance against the genetic differentiation between 11 populations in Montérégie, Québec, Canada. I was able to simultaneously measure the effect of the habitat and the landscape on the genetic differentiation of these mouse populations by utilizing numerical optimization to fit a model to previously published genetic data. I used ecological distance computed from resistance surfaces with Circuitscape to infer the effect of the landscape. Concurrently, I estimated the habitat quality of our sampling localities and correlated these to relevant habitat measurements. I found that both characteristics within and between forest patches have more of an impact on genetic differentiation than the geographical distance between the mice populations. This suggests that this species can disperse and use a wide range of habitats, in accordance with its recent rapid expansion in the region." --

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The present biodiversity crisis is rife with opportunities to make important conservation decisions; however, the misuse or misapplication of the methods and techniques of animal ecology can have serious consequences for the survival of species. Still, there have been relatively few critical reviews of methodology in the field. This book provides an analysis of some of the most frequently used research techniques in animal ecology, identifying their limitations and misuses, as well as possible solutions to avoid such pitfalls. In the process, contributors to this volume present new perspectives on the collection, analysis, and interpretation of data. Research Techniques in Animal Ecology is an overarching account of central theoretical and methodological controversies in the field, rather than a handbook on the minutiae of techniques. The editors have forged comprehensive presentations of key topics in animal ecology, such as territory and home range estimates, habitation evaluation, population viability analysis, GIS mapping, and measuring the dynamics of societies. Striking a careful balance, each chapter begins by assessing the shortcomings and misapplications of the techniques in question, followed by a thorough review of the current literature, and concluding with possible solutions and suggested guidelines for more robust investigations.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: 4.1.1 Demographic significance Confined populations grow more rapidly than populations from which dispersal is permitted (Lidicker, 1975; Krebs, 1979; Tamarin et at., 1984), and demography in island populations where dispersal is restricted differs greatly from nearby mainland populations (Lidicker, 1973; Tamarin, 1977, 1978; Gliwicz, 1980), clearly demonstrating the demographic signi ficance of dispersal. The prevalence of dispersal in rapidly expanding populations is held to be the best evidence for presaturation dispersal. Because dispersal reduces the growth rate of source populations, it is generally believed that emigration is not balanced by immigration, and that mortality of emigrants occurs as a result of movement into a 'sink' of unfavourable habitat. If such dispersal is age- or sex-biased, the demo graphy of the population is markedly affected, as a consequence of differ ences in mortality in the dispersive sex or age class. Habitat heterogeneity consequently underlies this interpretation of dispersal and its demographic consequences, although the spatial variability of environments is rarely assessed in dispersal studies.
