Journal ArticleDOI
Ecological and evolutionary consequences of size-selective harvesting: how much do we know?
Phillip B. Fenberg,Kaustuv Roy +1 more
TL;DR: This work uses examples from both aquatic and terrestrial habitats to illustrate some of the biological consequences of size‐selective harvesting and discusses possible future directions of research as well as changes in management policy needed to mitigate its negative biological impacts.
Journal ArticleDOI
One hundred years of eruptions of house mice in Australia: a natural biological curio
TL;DR: The house mouse has adapted well to the cereal crops of south-eastern Australia where populations show aperiodic outbreaks over large areas where a reduced diversity of diseases partially accounts for the ability of mice to increase rapidly to extreme population densities.
Journal ArticleDOI
Visibility bias in aerial surveys a review of estimation procedures
TL;DR: Several methods of estimating visibility bias based on comparison with ground counts, use of a subpopulation of marked animals, mapping with multiple observers, line transect sampling, and multiple counts on the same area are reviewed in this article.
Journal Article
Predation and other factors currently limiting New Zealand forest birds.
TL;DR: What is known about major causes of current declines or population limitation in New Zealand avifauna is reviewed, including predation, competition for food or another resource, disease, forest loss, and genetic problems such as inbreeding depression and reduced genetic variation.

Climate change reduces reproductive success of an Arctic herbivore through trophic mismatch.
Eric Post,Mads C. Forchhammer +1 more
TL;DR: As mean spring temperatures at the study site have risen by more than 4°C, caribou have not kept pace with advancement of the plant-growing season on their calving range and offspring mortality has risen and offspring production has dropped fourfold.
