Using the Size Structure of Populations to Infer Range Dynamics and the Frequency of Recruitment [PDF]
Climate change is causing shifts in the distributional ranges of species. Often, it is hard to evidence that a range shift has happened; however, because we lack time‐series data to track the distributional change of species.

On the Size and Structure of Group Cooperation [PDF]
This paper examines characteristics of cooperative behavior in a repeated, n-person, continuous action generalization of a Prisoner' Dilemma game. When time preferences are heterogeneous and bounded away from one, how "much" cooperation can be achieved by an ongoing group? How does group cooperation vary with the group' size and structure?

Role of Gmelinoides fasciatus (Crustacea: Amphipoda) in Macrozoobenthos on the Littoral of Lake Onego During the Subglacial Period [PDF]
Macrozoobenthos of the littoral of Lake Onego is represented by 22 units of different taxonomic rank. The invasive species Gmelinoides fasciatus (Stebbing 1899) (CRUSTACEA: AMPHIPODA) plays a dominant role by biomass in the littoral macrozoobenthos ...

Spatial and Temporal Abundance of the Reef Gastropod Tectus niloticus (Gastropoda: Tegulidae) in Marine Protected Areas in Palawan, Philippines: Prospects for Conservation [PDF]
The unsustainable harvesting of the reef gastropod Tectus niloticus or ‘trochus’ for the production of ‘mother of pearl’ buttons have led to the collapse of its population and closure of its fishery in some countries.
