Personality-specific carry-over effects on breeding. [PDF]

open access: yesProc Biol Sci, 2020
Carry-over effects describe the phenomenon whereby an animal's previous conditions influence its subsequent performance. Carry-over effects are unlikely to affect individuals uniformly, but the factors modulating their strength are poorly known. Variation in the strength of carry-over effects may reflect individual differences in pace-of-life: slow ...

Carry-over effects of resource polymorphisms [PDF]

open access: yes, 2019
An individual’s early-life environment or phenotype frequently influence its adult traits. Recently, scientists have begun to examine carry-over effects, how factors at one life stage can impact an individual’s performance in the following stages, to better understand how factors during development impact adult phenotypes.

Trade-Offs and Carry-Over Effects

open access: yes, 2012
This chapter first reviews the evidence for interactions between life-history stages, centering this around reproduction itself: the intention is to put reproduction in the context of the complete life-cycle. It considers how the wintering and pre-breeding period, including spring migration, can influence reproductive decisions, and in turn how ...

Fair-fixture: Minimizing carry-over effects in football leagues

open access: yesJournal of Industrial and Management Optimization, 2019
We study a sports scheduling problem with the objective of minimizing carry-over effects in round robin tournaments.In the first part, focusing on tournaments that allow minimum number of breaks (at most one) for each team, we formulate an integer programming model and provide an efficient heuristic algorithm to solve this computationally expensive ...

Consequences of life history switch point plasticity for juvenile morphology and locomotion in the Túngara frog [PDF]

open access: yesPeerJ, 2015
Many animals with complex life cycles can cope with environmental uncertainty by altering the timing of life history switch points through plasticity. Pond hydroperiod has important consequences for the fitness of aquatic organisms and many taxa alter ...

Nutritional stress legacy in the shrimp Palaemon varians and its implications for aquaculture production

open access: yesAquaculture Reports, 2022
The Atlantic ditch shrimp Palaemon varians Leach, 1814 is an attractive candidate for caridean shrimp aquaculture production. However, the effects of nutritional stress, in terms of variable food quality and feeding frequency, need to be further ...

Do Emotional Carryover Effects Carry Over?

open access: yesJournal of Behavioral and Experimental Economics, 2023
Existing research has demonstrated carryover effects whereby emotions generated in one context influence decisions in other, unrelated ones. We examine the carryover effect in relation to valuations of risky and ambiguous lotteries with a novel focus on the comparison of carryovers arising from a targeted stimulus (designed to elicit a specific emotion)

Direct and Legacy Effects of Spring Temperature Anomalies on Seasonal Productivity in Northern Ecosystems

open access: yesRemote Sensing, 2022
Warmer or cooler spring in northern high latitudes will, for the most part, directly impact gross primary productivity (GPP) of ecosystems, but also carry consequences for the upcoming seasonal GPP.

Interpopulation differences and temporal synchrony in rates of adult survival between two seabird colonies that differ in population size and distance to foraging grounds

open access: yesEcology and Evolution, 2023
Understanding the processes that drive interpopulation differences in demography and population dynamics is central to metapopulation ecology. In colonial species, populations are limited by local resource availability.
