Analysis of longitudinal growth increment data using mixed-effects models: Individual and spatial variability in a clam
(Elsevier Science, 2010-07)
Modeling growth is required in many ecological studies and stock assessment applications, but most fish and shellfish growth analyses focus on the estimation of average parameters, which do not provide a complete description ...
Temperature thresholds for Eucalyptus genotypes growth across tropical and subtropical ranges in South America
(2020-09-15)
Temperature is a crucial factor influencing the growth of forest plantations, and a key variable used in process-based models of forest productivity. In the present study, we evaluated the relationship between temperature ...
Seasonal-dependence in the responses of biological communities to flood pulses in warm temperate floodplain lakes: implications for the “alternative stable states” model
(Springer, 2014-10)
In floodplains located in temperate regions, seasonal variations in temperature affect biological communities and these effects may overlap with those of the flood regime. In this study we explored if and how timing (with ...
Between-species differences in demographic responses to temperature of coexisting cladocerans
(Ecological Society of Australia, 2007)
In this work we report on the seasonal trends of abundances in terms of temperature exposure for four
coexisting cladoceran species (Daphnia ambigua (Daphniidae), Ceriodaphnia dubia (Daphniidae), Diaphanosoma
chilense ...
Growth and Body Weight Variability of the Invasive Mussel Limnoperna fortunei (Mytilidae) Across Habitat and Season
(Institute of Malacology, 2015-04)
The freshwater mussel, Limnoperna fortunei, is adapted to colonize a wide range of aquatic environments, and its ability to contend with environmental stress through phenotypic plasticity has allowed this species to ...
Seasonal effects on the relationship between photosynthesis and leaf carbohydrates in orange trees
(CSIRO PUBLISHINGCOLLINGWOOD, 2012)
To understand the effect of summer and winter on the relationships between leaf carbohydrate and photosynthesis in citrus trees growing in subtropical conditions, 'Valencia' orange trees were subjected to external manipulation ...
Density dependence in the camelid Vicugna vicugna: the recovery of a protected population in Chile
(CAMBRIDGE UNIV PRESS, 2002)
The vicuna Vicugiia vicugna is a wild South American camelid. Following over-exploitation, which brought the species to the brink of extinction in Chile in the 1960s, the population was protected. Since 1975 the population ...
Modeling seasonal flushing and shoot growth on different citrus scion-rootstock combinations
(2021-10-15)
Occurrence, intensity, and growth patterns of new shoots (NS) were evaluated in orchards of ‘Pera’ and ‘Folha Murcha’ sweet oranges (Citrus × aurantium var. sinensis L.), ‘Ponkan’ mandarin (C. reticulata Blanco) and Persian ...
Seasonal changes in connectivity routes among larval fish assemblages in a semi-enclosed sea (Gulf of California)
(Journal of Plankton Reseach, 2011)
Seasonal changes in connectivity routes among larval fish assemblages in the northern Gulf of California were studied with connectivity matrices from particletracking with a 3D baroclinic numerical model. Results show ...
A new probabilistic canopy dynamics model (SLCD) that is suitable for evergreen and deciduous forest ecosystems
(Elsevier B.V., 2014-10-24)
There are strong uncertainties regarding LAI dynamics in forest ecosystems in response to climate change. While empirical growth & yield models (G&YMs) provide good estimations of tree growth at the stand level on a yearly ...
