Spatial ecology of territorial populations [PDF]
Proceedings of the National Academy of Sciences, 2019 Many ecosystems, from vegetation to biofilms, are composed of territorial populations that compete for both nutrients and physical space. What are the implications of such spatial organization for biodiversity? To address this question, we developed and analyzed a model of territorial resource competition.

Spatial structure of city population growth
Nature Communications, 2022 AbstractWe show here that population growth, resolved at the county level, is spatially heterogeneous both among and within the U.S. metropolitan statistical areas. Our analysis of data for over 3,100 U.S. counties reveals that annual population flows, resulting from domestic migration during the 2015–2019 period, are much larger than natural ...

Spatial Dimensions of Population Viability [PDF]
, 2004 In most parts of the world, habitat loss is the number one threat to endangered species. For instance, in Finland the primary cause of threat is some form of habitat loss or alteration in 73% of the red-listed species (Rassi et al. 2001). Typically, a reduced total area of habitat is accompanied by habitat fragmentation, such that the remaining habitat

Spatial Clustering for Inhomogeneous Populations
Journal of the Royal Statistical Society Series B: Statistical Methodology, 1990 SUMMARY A new method for detecting spatial clustering of events in populations with non-uniform density is proposed. The method is based on selecting controls from the population at risk and computing interpoint distances for the combined sample. Nonparametric tests are developed which are based on the number of cases among the k nearest
