Winter wipeout? Post‐disturbance recovery of brown trout indicates strong population resilience to harsh winter conditions

open access: yesOikos, EarlyView.
Demographic resilience refers to the capacity of a population to resist and recover from disturbances in terms of both population size and structure. Resilience to severe disturbance events, such as heatwaves, floods, and cold snaps, is likely to vary with the life‐history characteristics of the population, such as migratory strategy, and demographic ...

Estimating the abundance of clustered and cryptic marine macro-invertebrates in the Galápagos with particular reference to sea cucumbers [PDF]

open access: yes, 2003
Estimating the abundance of marine macro-invertebrates is complicated by a variety of factors: 1) human factors, such as diver efficiency and diver error; and 2) biological factors, such as aggregation of organisms, crypsis, and nocturnal emergence ...

Addressing biases in sliding window analysis gives new insight into the response of parturition date to weather in a wild mammal

open access: yesOikos, EarlyView.
Animal breeding phenology in temperate and high latitude regions is often predicted by weather variables, such as temperature. Much work on this topic has focused on taxonomic groups that employ adaptive plastic responses to annual variation in an environmental cue, with analytical approaches developed to determine when weather has an effect and the ...

Predators and scavengers: Polar bears as marine carrion providers

open access: yesOikos, EarlyView.
Scavenging is a foraging strategy widely used across the animal kingdom and apex predators provide a large amount of energy in a food web by provisioning carrion. In the harsh environmental conditions of the Arctic, apex predators such as polar bears Ursus maritimus can provide scavenging opportunities for many species. Carrion can act as a buffer when
