Mark-recapture statistics and demographic analysis
… provide a link between mark-recapture data and demographic models such as matrix population models and integrodifference models. I resolve some issues that are commonly encountered during sampling, such as the fact that the sex or life-stage of some individuals is unknown during some sampling …

Conservation and recovery of the Yellow Mud Turtle (Kinosternon flavescens) in Mason and Tazewell counties, Illinois
… associated with low genetic diversity and demographic stochasticity. Graph theory was used to model connectivity among wetlands in the study area. Two groups of wetlands, including all but one wetland where K. flavescens had been captured from 2007-2009, were identified as being connected …

Allee effects and the persistence of small populations
… as despite strong theoretical findings that a demographic Allee effect can prevent small founder population establishment, empirical evidence is limited. Additionally, social pressure is demanding alternative ‘greener’ tools to achieve eradication of new incursions. The Allee effect is defined …

Population ecology of wood ducks in Nevada under experimental manipulation of harvest
… that are influenced by environmental conditions, demographic stochasticity and increasingly, anthropogenic effects. Management directed at specific vital rates, like per capita births or deaths, is often used as a tool to influence change in wildlife populations. I experimentally manipulated …

SAGE-GROUSE AND THE HUMAN FOOTPRINT: IMPLICATIONS FOR CONSERVATION OF SMALL AND DECLINING POPULATIONS
… sites. Sage-grouse in the MRB met or exceeded demographic rates of stable or increasing populations, and thus, are not likely the cause for annual declines. Spring and summer survival of radio-marked females was higher in 2008 (0.91), than in 2007 (0.55), the year we documented an outbreak of …

Spatial-temporal patterns in evolutionary ecology and fluid turbulence
… discuss how to solve such system with inherent stochasticity by a generic and systematic analytical approach in the spirit of statistical mechanics, using a stochastic individual-level model. We show that this method can naturally capture the universal behavior of the stochastic dynamics from …
