Neutral Theory and Relative Species Abundance in Ecology [PDF]
Nature, 2003 The theory of island biogeography[1] asserts that an island or a local community approaches an equilibrium species richness as a result of the interplay between the immigration of species from the much larger metacommunity source area and local ...

Tiger abundance and ecology in Jigme Dorji National Park, Bhutan
Global Ecology and Conservation, 2023 Conservation of large carnivores, especially, wild tigers (Panthera tigris) require an accurate population estimate and knowledge of their ecology. Camera traps have been widely used to estimate the population abundance of animals with unique natural ...

Relationships between body size and abundance in ecology
Trends in Ecology and Evolution, 2007 Body size is perhaps the most fundamental property of an organism and is related to many biological traits, including abundance. The relationship between abundance and body size has been extensively studied in an attempt to quantify the form of the relationship and to understand the processes that generate it.

Comparative Analysis of Core Microbiome Assignments: Implications for Ecological Synthesis
mSystems, 2023 The concept of a core microbiome has been broadly used to refer to the consistent presence of a set of taxa across multiple samples within a given habitat.

Ecology and abundance of zooplankton in Karanja reservoir [PDF]
Environmental Monitoring and Assessment, 2008 The present work aims to study the Zooplankton seasonal distribution and diversity in Karanja reservoir, Bidar district for the period of two years from October 2001 to September 2003. We have recorded 36 species of which, 15 species belongs to rotifera, 11 species belongs to cladocera, nine species belongs to copepoda and ostracoda three species ...

Abundance-weighted phylogenetic diversity measures distinguish microbial community states and are robust to sampling depth [PDF]
PeerJ, 2013 In microbial ecology studies, the most commonly used ways of investigating alpha (within-sample) diversity are either to apply non-phylogenetic measures such as Simpson’s index to Operational Taxonomic Unit (OTU) groupings, or to use classical ...

Pre-whaling genetic diversity and population ecology in eastern Pacific gray whales: insights from ancient DNA and stable isotopes. [PDF]
PLoS ONE, 2012 Commercial whaling decimated many whale populations, including the eastern Pacific gray whale, but little is known about how population dynamics or ecology differed prior to these removals.
