Monitoring and Population Density Estimation
Effective Integrated Pest Management (IPM) programs rely heavily on accurate knowledge of pest and beneficial organism populations. Within the... -
Population Density of Resident and Nonresident Small Forest Mammals
AbstractWhen assessing the abundance of small mammals using traditional methods, an abundance index that is the number of individuals per unit of...

Population density and vegetation resources influence demography in a hibernating herbivorous mammal
Demography of herbivorous mammal populations may be affected by changes in predation, population density, harvesting, and climate. Whereas numerous...

Sexual dimorphism and topological variability in fingerprint ridge density in a north-west Indian population
The science of fingerprints is very crucial in criminal investigation as it helps identify perpetrators or victims of a crime. Fingerprint ridge...

Caterpillar movement mediates spatially local interactions and determines the relationship between population density and contact
BackgroundWhile interactions in nature are inherently local, ecological models often assume homogeneity across space, allowing for generalization...

Population Ecology
This chapter provides a comprehensive overview of population ecology, offering valuable insights into the dynamics and interactions that shape the... -
Negative density-dependence buffers against mismatch-induced population decline in the Sinai baton blue butterfly
Phenological mismatches caused by climate change pose a major threat to global biodiversity, yet relatively few studies have reported population...

Population Fluctuations and Dispersions
The chapter “Monitoring and Population Density Estimation” within the book “Decision System in Agricultural Pest Management” delves into the... -
Demographic signals of population decline and time to extinction in a seasonal, density-dependent model
Nearly all wild populations live in seasonal environments in which they experience regular fluctuations in environmental conditions that drive...

Irruptions of Bohemian Waxwings in relation to population density and food availability
Bird irruptions are thought to be triggered by a combination of lack of food in the regular distribution range and high population density (push...

Distribution, Population Density, and Behavior of Dwarf Galagos (Paragalago sp.) in Taita Hills, Kenya
A good understanding of taxonomy, distribution, and population density is needed for conservation. Scientific knowledge of dwarf galagos ( Paragalago ...

Impact of an environment-friendly rice-production method on the population density of Pelophylax nigromaculatus frogs
Frogs play crucial roles in ecosystems as both predator and prey within food webs. The decline in their populations is attributed, in part, to...

Female Aedes aegypti mosquitoes use communal cues to manage population density at breeding sites
Where a female mosquito lays her eggs creates the conditions for reproductive success. Here we identify a communal behavior among ovipositing female...

Population Components of Pests
Understanding the population dynamics of pests is crucial in agricultural pest management. This book chapter, "Population Components of Pests,"... -
Impact of different condition on population density and weight loss ratio of Callosobruchus Spp beetles, and its control
Determining population density is a crucial factor in assessing the damage caused by pests in stored products seed. In our study, we examined the...

Population Dynamics
In this chapter we present how ecologists and biological pest control researchers can assess the role of natural enemies in pest insect population... -
On a population model with density dependence and Allee effect
We study the dynamics of a discrete model with two different stages of the population, the pre-adult stage governed by a Beverton–Holt-type map and...

Using density estimates, sex ratios and size structure to assess the status of a threatened Australian freshwater crayfish (Euastacus armatus) population
Managing and conserving wild animal populations relies on accurately describing changes in populations through time. Density estimates, sex ratios...

Changes in the Hippocampus of the Bank Vole Due to Population Density Dynamics
AbstractWe studied hippocampal variability in relation to the multiyear population density cycle and the action of density-dependent autoregulatory...
