Habitat management decisions for conservation: a conceptual framework

open access: yesFrontiers in Conservation Science
The focus of this selection of papers is the linkage of habitat and population dynamics for the purpose of conservation. We thus provide a general framework for making conservation decisions, emphasizing how knowledge of habitat–population linkages fits ...

Dynamics of Encoding in Neuron Populations: Some General Mathematical Features

open access: yesNeural Computation, 2000
The use of a population dynamics approach promises efficient simulation of large assemblages of neurons. Depending on the issues addressed and the degree of realism incorporated in the simulated neurons, a wide range of different population dynamics formulations can be appropriate.

Demographic change and regional competitiveness: The effects of immigration and ageing

open access: yes, 2007
The demographic profile of a region is usually seen as a slowly changing background phenomenon in the analysis of regional competitiveness and regional growth. However, regional demographic change can have a significant impact on regional competitiveness

A generalized population dynamics model for reproductive interference with absolute density dependence

open access: yesScientific Reports, 2017
Interspecific mating interactions, or reproductive interference, can affect population dynamics, species distribution and abundance. Previous population dynamics models have assumed that the impact of frequency-dependent reproductive interference depends

New Zealand regions, 1986 – 2001: Hospitalisation and some related health facts

open access: yes, 2006
Once age and gender composition is controlled for, regional health differentials are a function of problems of health service delivery, of socio-economic variance, and overall Māori Pakeha health differences.

A model of meta-population dynamics for North Sea and West of Scotland cod - the dynamic consequences of natal fidelity

open access: yes, 2008
It is clear from a variety of data that cod (Gadus morhua) in the North Sea do not constitute a homogeneous population that will rapidly redistribute in response to local variability in exploitation. Hence, local exploitation has the potential to deplete

Bridging the gap from ocean models to population dynamics of large marine predators: A model of mid-trophic functional groups [PDF]

open access: yes, 2009
The modeling of mid-trophic organisms of the pelagic ecosystem is a critical step in linking the coupled physical–biogeochemical models to population dynamics of large pelagic predators. Here, we provide an example of a modeling approach with definitions

Difference equation for a population model

open access: yesDiscrete Dynamics in Nature and Society, 2000
In this paper we consider a difference equation of the form u(t+2)=αu(t+1)+βu(t+1)−αu(t)αu(t), for t>−∞, seems to be a general statement of a relative socio-spatial dynamics. Indeed this equation is one of “population model”.

The economic consequences of population and urbanization growth in Italy: from the 13th century to 1900. A discussion on the Malthusian dynamics [PDF]

open access: yes
In this paper we investigate the quantitative relation between population, real wages and urbanization in the Italian economy during the period 1320-1870.

Demographic change and transport needs in the Waikato region

open access: yes, 2005
This report has been commissioned by Environment Waikato (EW) as part of its review of the Land Transport Strategy for the Waikato region. The report identifies key population characteristics that impact on transport needs of the EW region and the ...
