RECRUITMENT VS. POSTRECRUITMENT PROCESSES AS DETERMINANTS OF BARNACLE POPULATION ABUNDANCE.(Statistical Data Included)
May 01, 2000; ... BRUCE A. MENGE [1] Abstract. Determining the relative contributions of recruitment vs. postrecruitment processes to adult populations is an unresolved issue. The "recruit-adult" hypothesis suggests that the density of recruits is a good predictor of adult density when low but ...
STRONG IMPACTS OF GRAZING AMPHIPODS ON THE ORGANIZATION OF A BENTHIC COMMUNITY.(Statistical Data Included)
May 01, 2000; ... J. EMMETT DUFFY [1,3] MARK E. HAY [2] Abstract. Large brown seaweeds dominate coastal hard substrata throughout many of the world's oceans. In coastal North Carolina, USA, this dominance by brown seaweeds is facilitated by omnivorous fishes, which feed both on red ...
FOREST BIRD COMMUNITY STRUCTURE IN CENTRAL PANAMA: INFLUENCE OF SPATIAL SCALE AND BIOGEOGRAPHY.
May 01, 2000; ... W. DOUGLAS ROBINSON [1,3] JEFFREY D. BRAWN [2] SCOTT K. ROBINSON [2] Abstract. Historical and biogeographic contexts can play important, yet sometimes overlooked, roles in determining structure of local communities. In particular, few examinations of ...
IMPACTS OF ROOT COMPETITION IN FORESTS AND WOODLANDS: A THEORETICAL FRAMEWORK AND REVIEW OF EXPERIMENTS.
May 01, 2000; ... DAVID A. COOMES [1,3] PETER J. GRUBB [2] Abstract. Light is widely considered to be the most important factor limiting the performance of plants on the floors of forests and woodlands, but the roles of nutrient availability and water supply remain poorly defined. We ...
GENETIC INFLUENCES ON EXPERIMENTAL POPULATION DYNAMICS OF THE LEAST KILLIFISH.(Statistical Data Included)
May 01, 2000; ... JEFF LEIPS [1] JOSEPH TRAVIS F. HELEN RODD [2] Abstract. When natural populations differ in density or in the dynamic fluctuations of population size, some of those differences may result from their different ecological conditions, and some may originate ...
