Scientific equipment, such as animal traps and autonomous data collection systems, is regularly left in the field unattended, making it an easy target for vandalism or theft. We tested the effectiveness of three label types, which differed ...
mizer: an R package for multispecies, trait-based and community size spectrum ecological modelling [0.03%]
Mizer：基于R语言的多物种、性状和群落大小谱生态模型框架包

Size spectrum ecological models are representations of a community of individuals which grow and change trophic level. A key emergent feature of these models is the size spectrum; the total abundance of all individuals that scales negativel...
Measuring telomere length and telomere dynamics in evolutionary biology and ecology [0.03%]
端粒长度和端粒动态在进化生物学和生态学中的测定方法

Telomeres play a fundamental role in the protection of chromosomal DNA and in the regulation of cellular senescence. Recent work in human epidemiology and evolutionary ecology suggests adult telomere length (TL) may reflect past physiologic...
Predicting local and non-local effects of resources on animal space use using a mechanistic step selection model [0.03%]
基于机制步选择模型预测资源对动物空间利用的局地和非局地作用

Predicting space use patterns of animals from their interactions with the environment is fundamental for understanding the effect of habitat changes on ecosystem functioning. Recent attempts to address this problem have sought to unify reso...
A method for calculating minimum biodiversity offset multipliers accounting for time discounting, additionality and permanence [0.03%]

Biodiversity offsetting, which means compensation for ecological and environmental damage caused by development activity, has recently been gaining strong political support around the world. One common criticism levelled at offsets is that ...
Effects of phylogenetic reconstruction method on the robustness of species delimitation using single-locus data [0.03%]
系统发育重建方法对单基因数据物种划分稳健性的影响

Cuong Q Tang et al.
Coalescent-based species delimitation methods combine population genetic and phylogenetic theory to provide an objective means for delineating evolutionarily significant units of diversity. The generalised mixed Yule coalescent (GMYC) and t...
Extension of Nakagawa & Schielzeth's R2GLMM to random slopes models [0.03%]

Nakagawa & Schielzeth extended the widely used goodness-of-fit statistic R2 to apply to generalized linear mixed models (GLMMs). However, their R2GLMM method is restricted to models with the simplest random effects structure, known as rando...
Calculating second derivatives of population growth rates for ecology and evolution [0.03%]

1. Second derivatives of the population growth rate measure the curvature of its response to demographic, physiological or environmental parameters. The second derivatives quantify the response of sensitivity results to perturbations, provi...
Simultaneously estimating evolutionary history and repeated traits phylogenetic signal: applications to viral and host phenotypic evolution [0.03%]
同时估计进化历史和重复特征的系统发育信号：病毒和宿主表型进化的应用
Bram Vrancken,Philippe Lemey,Andrew Rambaut et al.
Bram Vrancken et al.
Phylogenetic signal quantifies the degree to which resemblance in continuously-valued traits reflects phylogenetic relatedness. Measures of phylogenetic signal are widely used in ecological and evolutionary research, and are recently gainin...
Decomposing changes in phylogenetic and functional diversity over space and time [0.03%]
时空变化的系谱多样性和功能多样性分解

Loïc Chalmandrier et al.
The α, β, γ diversity decomposition methodology is commonly used to investigate changes in diversity over space or time but rarely conjointly. However, with the ever-increasing availability of large-scale biodiversity monitoring data, th...
