Environmental Uncertainty and Variable Diapause

Theoretical Population Biology, 1993
We analyze a stage-structured model of a population that displays variable diapause in a randomly varying environment. The ruggedness of the environment is measured by the extent of random variation in per-capita reproductive success. We show how variable diapause and environmental characteristics affect the population's stochastic growth rate.

On environmental variability and limits to similarity

Journal of Theoretical Biology, 1980
Abstract Different model approaches to the problem of environmental variability and limits to similarity are reviewed. It is shown that the assumption of a strictly flat resource spectrum leads to singular results. Hence, the result of May & MacArthur that a qualitative difference exists between a constant and a weakly varying environment is not ...

Environmental Variables in Consumer Research

Journal of Consumer Research, 1976
Russell Belk's explicit recognition of environmental variables and their ability to explain and predict behavior is applauded. His approach to describing environmental differences is noted as lacking parsimony, however, and an alternative, more parsimonious, approach is suggested.

Calcium as an environmental variable

Plant, Cell & Environment, 1984
Abstract. The chemical state of calcium in the soil and the effects, both direct and indirect, which this can have on the growth and distribution of plants are considered. Recent advances in knowledge refer mainy to interactions (between nitrogen source, aluminium and pH, for example) for which there is now experimental evidence and which themselves ...

Variability of environmental loads

Ocean Engineering, 1988
The oceanographic and meteorological data bases presently available at the Canadian Climate Centre, Environment Canada are used to produce plots for the coefficient of variation of annual and monthly environmental loads due to winds and waves. This parameter is extremely important for the calculation of design risks and is linked to the selection of ...

Environmental variables related to cervical cancer

American Journal of Obstetrics and Gynecology, 1962
Abstract An original study was undertaken to establish an epidemiologic direction for a series of replicates seeking causation of cervical cancer and separating genetic and environmental influences. Results of this first study are sufficiently interesting for a report. 1.1.
