Sources of variation in estimating breeding success of migratory birds from autumn counts
Understanding drivers of change in population sizes requires estimation of demographic rates such as survival and productivity. In migratory geese, productivity or breeding success is typically assessed at the autumn staging and wintering grounds by ...

Success Breeds Success Locally: A Tale of Incubator Firms [PDF]
This paper focuses on the pre-establishment period of start-ups in industrial districts. The industrial architecture is what I call a "rationed agglomeration" in which some entrepreneurs gather around an established firm while other entrepreneurs in the same business stand alone.

Breeding site attendance and breeding success in Phyllomedusa trinitatis (Anura: Phyllomedusidae)
Using a natural marker, we documented breeding site attendance patterns by males and females of the Trinidad Leaf Frog, Phyllomedusa trinitatis. We followed attendance at a cluster of three isolated ponds over 53 and 56 consecutive nights in 2016 and ...

The Importance of Nest Box Placement for Barn Owls (Tyto alba)
Nest boxes have been used for years to increase breeding bird numbers for conservation and also in biological pest control projects. Barn owls (Tyto alba) have been used as biological pest control agents for rodents for years, and since nest boxes are ...
