Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Surveying an area dense with conflicting observations and ideas, this volume vividly depicts the current state of knowledge as well as the great diversity of opinion in the field of population ecology. Ten papers by outstanding authorities focus on three main issues-the effects of environment and population density on population dynamics, the influence of animal behavior on population growth, and the possibilities of genetic feedback or short-term evolutionary change on control of animal populations. An incisive introduction by the editor establishes a frame of reference and supplies succinct resolutions of some of the important controversies dealt with in these pages.

Book excerpt: Animal Population Ecology focuses on the interaction between the various factors that affect an animal population. Population ecology is the study of the factors that determine the abundance of species and is concerned with the identification and mode of action of those environmental factors that cause fluctuations in population size and of those which determine the extent of these fluctuations. Organized into 11 chapters, the book initially examines some of the basic ideas about animal populations and defines many of the terms used by population ecologists. Then, it describes the action of the most important factors affecting population size. The interaction between these factors is demonstrated in chapters 8 and 9, wherein the results from studies of a few selected species are presented in detail. Finally, chapters 10 and 11 cover the development of generalized theories of population dynamics and their application to practical problems. With a strong focus on intensive study of animal populations in the field, rather than elaborate theories, the book will be helpful to population ecologists, animal researchers, teachers, and students.

Download or read book The Generally Weak Influence of Density-dependent Regulation on Natural Animal Populations written by Paul D. Clarke and published by . This book was released on 1996 with total page pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Animal population densities are thought to be "regulated" by density-dependent processes (Haldane, 1953; Royama, 1977: Berryman, 1991). The perceived importance of these processes to biologists is evident from the vast amount of research dedicated to this idea (Inchausti, 1994). Most of this research addresses the problem(s) of detecting the effect of density-dependent regulatory processes using time series data. However, the question of the relative importance of density-dependent factors upon rates of change of population abundances is rarely addressed. In this thesis, I quantify the importance of density-dependent factors in 303 natural animal populations. I found that, on average, only $\approx$19% of the temporal variability in per capita growth rate could be statistically related to population density. Yet research effort concentrates overwhelmingly on density-dependent processes. I conclude that the effects of density-dependent processes within natural animal populations are generally weak and disproportionately studied.

Download or read book Capture-Recapture: Parameter Estimation for Open Animal Populations written by George A. F. Seber and published by Springer. This book was released on 2019-08-13 with total page 663 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This comprehensive book, rich with applications, offers a quantitative framework for the analysis of the various capture-recapture models for open animal populations, while also addressing associated computational methods. The state of our wildlife populations provides a litmus test for the state of our environment, especially in light of global warming and the increasing pollution of our land, seas, and air. In addition to monitoring our food resources such as fisheries, we need to protect endangered species from the effects of human activities (e.g. rhinos, whales, or encroachments on the habitat of orangutans). Pests must be be controlled, whether insects or viruses, and we need to cope with growing feral populations such as opossums, rabbits, and pigs. Accordingly, we need to obtain information about a given population’s dynamics, concerning e.g. mortality, birth, growth, breeding, sex, and migration, and determine whether the respective population is increasing , static, or declining. There are many methods for obtaining population information, but the most useful (and most work-intensive) is generically known as “capture-recapture,” where we mark or tag a representative sample of individuals from the population and follow that sample over time using recaptures, resightings, or dead recoveries. Marks can be natural, such as stripes, fin profiles, and even DNA; or artificial, such as spots on insects. Attached tags can, for example, be simple bands or streamers, or more sophisticated variants such as radio and sonic transmitters. To estimate population parameters, sophisticated and complex mathematical models have been devised on the basis of recapture information and computer packages. This book addresses the analysis of such models. It is primarily intended for ecologists and wildlife managers who wish to apply the methods to the types of problems discussed above, though it will also benefit researchers and graduate students in ecology. Familiarity with basic statistical concepts is essential.

Download or read book Analysis and Management of Animal Populations written by Byron K. Williams and published by Academic Press. This book was released on 2002-05-16 with total page 837 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Analysis and Management of Animal Populations deals with the processes involved in making informed decisions about the management of animal populations. It covers the modeling of population responses to management actions, the estimation of quantities needed in the modeling effort, and the application of these estimates and models to the development of sound management decisions. The book synthesizes and integrates in a single volume the methods associated with these themes, as they apply to ecological assessment and conservation of animal populations. Integrates population modeling, parameter estimation and decision-theoretic approaches to management in a single, cohesive framework Provides authoritative, state-of-the-art descriptions of quantitative approaches to modeling, estimation and decision-making Emphasizes the role of mathematical modeling in the conduct of science and management Utilizes a unifying biological context, consistent mathematical notation, and numerous biological examples
