Density Dependence in Large Herbivores Inhabiting an Insular Nature Reserve [PDF]
While studies often focus on density‐dependent responses of ungulate populations to resource limitations at large spatial scales, the dynamics at smaller scales remain relatively unexplored.

Resource Translocation Modelling Highlights Density-Dependence Effects in Fruit Production at Various Levels of Organisation [PDF]
The size of fruit cells, seeds and fruits depends on their number. Could this density-dependence effect result from sugar resource sharing and, if so, does it involve phloem sugar flow or the intensity of sugar unloading to the sink? A density-dependence

Does the growth rate of drifting Furcellaria lumbricalis and Coccotylus truncatus depend on their proportion and density?; pp. 141–147 [PDF]
The West Estonian Archipelago Sea hosts a loose-lying red macroalgal community dominated by Furcellaria lumbricalis and Coccotylus truncatus. The community is truly unique in European seas.

Pulsed supplies of small fish facilitate time-limited intraguild predation in salmon-stocked streams
Pulsed supplies of prey generally increase predator food intake. However, it is unclear whether this holds true when predators and pulsed prey are in the same guild (i.e. intraguild (IG) predators and prey).

Elephant population responses to increased density in Kruger National Park
The elephant population in the Kruger National Park (KNP) has been increasing since the cessation of culling in the mid-1990s. This contrasts with recent trends in elephant populations in many parts of Africa where poaching continues to decrease numbers.

During community assembly, abiotic factors can influence species at multiple stages during their life history, for example by affecting early settlement or establishment probabilities and thus initial densities (route 1: abiotic effects on density), or ...

Diagnosing age‐specific influences on demographic trends and their drivers in at‐risk wildlife species can support the development of targeted conservation interventions. Such information also underpins understanding of life history.

There remains a lack of holistic approaches for analyzing how different density-independent and density-dependent (endogenous) mechanisms interact to drive the dynamics of the small pelagic fish populations of the southern Humboldt Current ecosystem.

Habitat affinity and density‐dependent movement as indicators of fish habitat restoration efficacy
Conceptual and methodological tools from behavioral ecology can inform studies of habitat quality, and their potential for evaluating habitat restoration in conservation efforts is explored here.
