Green‐brown polymorphism in alpine grasshoppers affects body temperature
Ecology and Evolution, 2020 Ectothermic animals depend on external heat sources for pursuing their daily activities. However, reaching sufficiently high temperature can be limiting at high altitudes, where nights are cold and seasons short.

Partial differential equations in ecology: spatial interactions and population dynamics [PDF]
, 1994 Most of the fundamental elements of ecology, ranging from individual behavior to species abundance, diversity, and population dynamics, exhibit spatial variation.

Caldasia, 2020 Attalea nucifera is an acaulescent palm native of Colombia that is in risk of extinction. Between 2016-2017 we evaluated the structure and density of populations in six localities of the Magdalena river val-ley, and studied the population dynamic in the ...

Ecology and Evolution, 2020 Nursery pollination systems are species interactions where pollinators also act as fruit/seed herbivores of the plant partner. While the plants depend on associated insects for pollination, the insects depend on the plants’ reproductive structures for ...

Frontiers in Forests and Global Change, 2020 The impact of ecological and climatological factors on individual organisms over time and space is inherently complex and creates substantial uncertainty about how climate change will influence the global biosphere. To understand some of this complexity,

Interpopulation variation in seed traits of five Polygonaceae
Frontiers in Ecology and Evolution, 2023 Interpopulation variability in seed traits may drive the regeneration capacity of a species to colonize different environments. In the present study, we evaluated the variation in seed physical traits (mass / size, water imbibition, shape index) and ...

Density-dependent immigration promotes population stability in a long-distance migratory bird
, 2017 The spatial structure of populations determines the relative importance of reproduction, survival and movement on population dynamics. However, the mechanisms by which local individuals and immigrants interact and the subsequent effects of immigrants on ...
