Adaptive delayed reproduction in a 2-dimensional discrete-time competition model
This paper studies a 2-dimensional discrete-time competition model of Ricker type with reproductive delay. The model is examined under the assumption that species 1 and 2 have the same properties except that a fraction η of species 1 individuals delays ...

Rethinking Biological Invasions as a Metacommunity Problem
Perhaps more than any other ecological discipline, invasion biology has married the practices of basic science and the application of that science. The conceptual frameworks of population regulation, metapopulations, supply-side ecology, and community ...

Thermal monitoring: Invasive, minimal-invasive and non-invasive approaches
Thermal treatments need verification of effectiveness. Invasive intra-tumoural thermometry was established as a standard method several years ago. However, in deep heating, invasive techniques have disadvantages. Therefore, alternatives have been suggested and are under development.In three phase II studies treating rectal cancer, cervical cancer and ...

Are Iron-Rich Calcareous Mine Sites Easily Invaded by Invasive Plant Species?
Plant diversity in relatively harsh environments, such as metal-polluted areas tends to be relatively low. Invasive plants may invade harsh environments more easily than native plants.

Genetic Identity and Herbivory Drive the Invasion of a Common Aquatic Microbial Invader
Despite the increasing number of species invasions, the factors driving invasiveness are still under debate. This is particularly the case for “invisible” invasions by aquatic microbial species.

Graminoid Invasion in an Insular Endemism Hotspot and Its Protected Areas
Invasive plant species are increasingly altering species composition and the functioning of ecosystems from a local to a global scale. The grass species Pennisetum setaceum has recently raised concerns as an invader on different archipelagos worldwide ...
