The general continuum model for structured populations, with two case studies in plant ecology
… and usefulness of a very general model for plant population dynamics. In chapter 1, the goal of generality is discussed, particularly in the light of the lack of interaction between field and experimental population studies on the one hand and theoretical population dynamics on the other …

Ectomycorrhizal Fungal Succession in a Native Monterey Pine Forest and Its Potential Influence Upon Forest Population Dynamics
Ectomycorrhizal fungi are plant symbionts influential to the growth and survival of many plant species found within forest ecosystems throughout the globe. The succession of ectomycorrhizal communities during forest maturation has been observed in a number of systems; however, though it is …

Population Dynamics in Response to Fire in <i>Quercus laevis - Pinus palustris</i> Barrens and Related Communities in Southeast Virginia
… Virginia) were sampled in order to: quantify plant population dynamics in response to fire, compare these dynamics among different moisture regimes, compare the effect of mechanical understory removal to that of fire on tree seedling and herbaceous dynamics, and determine the effect of dense …

The Influence of Biogeography and Mating System on the Ecology of Desert Annual Plants
A major challenge in plant ecology is in understanding how species strategies mediate interactions between the environment and fitness. Variation in niche strategies that affect phenological, physiological, and reproductive traits will allow species to partition resources differently in space and …

Transient dynamics in plant population models
Transient dynamics describe short-term responses to unstable conditions in population models. Although the theoretical potential of these short-term effects to change interpretation of model behavior has been demonstrated, it is unclear whether transient analyses will be relevant or useful in …
