Patch use as an indicator of habitat preference, predation risk, and competition
TL;DR: In this paper, a technique for using patch giving up densities to investigate habitat preferences, predation risk, and interspecific competitive relationships is theoretically analyzed and empirically investigated, and the technique was applied to a community of four Arizonan granivorous rodents (Perognathus amplus, Dipodomys merriami, Ammospermophilus harrisii, and Spermophilia tereticaudus).
Journal ArticleDOI
The Ecology of Fear: Optimal Foraging, Game Theory, and Trophic Interactions
TL;DR: This work extends foraging theory to consider a predator-prey game of stealth and fear and then embeds this game into the modeling of predator- prey population dynamics, which identifies the endpoints of a continuum of N-driven (population size) versus μ- driven (fear) systems.
Journal ArticleDOI
Hazardous duty pay and the foraging cost of predation
Joel S. Brown,Burt P. Kotler +1 more
TL;DR: The concepts and research associated with measuring fear and its consequences for foraging, including titrating for fear responses in foragers has some well-established applications and holds promise for novel methodologies, concepts and applications are reviewed.
Journal ArticleDOI
The Selective Interactions of Dispersal, Dormancy, and Seed Size as Adaptations for Reducing Risk in Variable Environments
D. L. Venable,Joel S. Brown +1 more
TL;DR: In this article, a model to explore the ways the three seed traits may interact to reduce risk was developed. But the model is limited to a single set of seed traits, and it is not applicable to all seed traits.
MonographDOI
Foraging : behavior and ecology
TL;DR: This volume brings together twenty-two experts from throughout the field to offer the latest on the mechanics of foraging, modern foraging theory, and foraging ecology, and will be the definitive guide to the field.
