Adult Sex Ratio as a Demographic Feedback Linking Mating Systems, Parental Care, and Evolution
Advanced Science, EarlyView.Breeding systems are some of the most diverse social behavior, and our team is investigation the evolutionary causes of this diversity. This review summarises our research carried out at the University of Bath. We argue that demographic components of wild populations, especially the adult sex ratio, plays a key role driving breeding system variation ...

Knowledge and Management of Aquatic Ecosystems, 2011 Catch per unit effort (CPUE) is used as a standardized trapping method by local fishermen and in monitoring studies. In this study, CPUE was compared with population estimates made with a capture-recapture method based on the passive ...

Modeling trap-awareness and related phenomena in capture-recapture studies. [PDF]
PLoS ONE, 2012 Trap-awareness and related phenomena whereby successive capture events are not independent is a feature of the majority of capture-recapture studies. This phenomenon was up to now difficult to incorporate in open population models and most authors have ...

Quantifying whether different demographic models produce incongruent results on population dynamics of two long-term studied rodent species [PDF]
, 2017 1. Population density (ind/ha) of long-term (>15 years) series of CMR populations, using distinct demographic models designed for both open and closed populations, were analysed for two sympatric species of rodents (Myodes glareolus and ...

Business Strategy and the Environment, EarlyView.ABSTRACT Circular economy (CE) is increasingly adopted by the manufacturing industry to decouple economic growth from environmental impacts by optimizing resource use and minimizing waste generation. Nevertheless, circular manufacturing often triggers systemic responses that diminish or offset their potential environmental gains, resulting in the so ...

Testing the consistency of wildlife data types before combining them: the case of camera traps and telemetry. [PDF]
, 2014 Wildlife data gathered by different monitoring techniques are often combined to estimate animal density. However, methods to check whether different types of data provide consistent information (i.e., can information from one data type be used to predict

Business Strategy and the Environment, EarlyView.ABSTRACT The global manufacturing sector has increasingly adopted circular economy (CE) practices to address sustainability challenges and improve operational efficiency. This study explores the impact of five CE practices—reduce, reuse, remanufacture, recycle, and recover—on key operational performance dimensions: quality, speed, dependability ...

A unified framework for de-duplication and population size estimation (with Discussion) [PDF]
, 2019 Data de-duplication is the process of finding records in one or more datasets belonging to the same entity. In this paper we tackle the de-duplication process via a latent entity model, where the observed data are perturbed versions of a set of key ...

Spatial Capture-Recapture for Categorically Marked Populations with An Application to Genetic Capture-Recapture [PDF]
Ecosphere, 2018 AbstractRecently introduced unmarked spatial capture-recapture (SCR), spatial mark-resight (SMR), and 2-flank spatial partial identity models (SPIM) extend the domain of SCR to populations or observation systems that do not always allow for individual identity to be determined with certainty. For example, some species do not have natural marks that can

Business Strategy and the Environment, EarlyView.ABSTRACT This paper examines the relationship between industrial robotics adoption and ecological capacity, measured by biocapacity, using panel data from 50 countries over the period 2000–2024. We investigate the transmission mechanisms, non‐linearities, spatial spillovers, and heterogeneity characterizing this relationship.
