Journal ArticleDOI
Diversity of ageing across the tree of life
Owen R. Jones,Alexander Scheuerlein,Roberto Salguero-Gómez,Carlo Giovanni Camarda,Ralf Schaible,Brenda B. Casper,Johan P. Dahlgren,Johan Ehrlén,María B. García,Eric S. Menges,Pedro F. Quintana-Ascencio,Hal Caswell,Annette Baudisch,James W. Vaupel +13 more
TL;DR: Great variation among these species, including increasing, constant, decreasing, humped and bowed trajectories for both long- and short-lived species, challenges theoreticians to develop broader perspectives on the evolution of ageing and empiricists to study the demography of more species.
Journal ArticleDOI
Longevity can buffer plant and animal populations against changing climatic variability
William F. Morris,Catherine A. Pfister,Shripad Tuljapurkar,Chirrakal V. Haridas,Carol L. Boggs,Mark S. Boyce,Emilio M. Bruna,Don R. Church,Tim Coulson,Daniel F. Doak,Stacey A. Forsyth,Jean-Michel Gaillard,Carol C. Horvitz,Susan Kalisz,Bruce E. Kendall,Tiffany M. Knight,Charlotte T. Lee,Eric S. Menges +17 more
TL;DR: The results suggest that problems associated with short-lived undesirable species may be exacerbated in regions where climate variability decreases, and that taxonomic affiliation has little power to explain sensitivity to increasing variability once longevity has been taken into account.
Journal ArticleDOI
Emerging Issues in Population Viability Analysis
J. Michael Reed,L. Scott Mills,John B. Dunning,Eric S. Menges,Kevin S. McKelvey,Robert J. Frye,Steven R. Beissinger,Marie-Charlotte Anstett,Philip Miller +8 more
TL;DR: It is concluded that PVA is a powerful tool in conservation biology for comparing alternative research plans and relative extinction risks among species, but caution is suggested in its use.
Journal ArticleDOI
Population Viability Analysis for an Endangered Plant
TL;DR: In this article, the authors used demographic models to understand the population viability of Furbish's lousewort, Pedicularis furbishiae, a perennial plant species endemic to the St. John River Valley in northern Maine.
Journal ArticleDOI
Patterns of Change in the Carbon Balance of Organic Soil-Wetlands of the Temperate Zone
T. V. Armentano,Eric S. Menges +1 more
TL;DR: In this article, a computer model was used to track the consequent changes in the carbon balance of nine wetland regions in the temperate zone of the United States and Europe.
