Chapter 5 Empirical Evidence of Density-Dependence in Populations of Large Herbivores
Density-dependence is a key concept in population dynamics. Here, we review how body mass and demographic parameters vary with population density in large herbivores. The demographic parameters we consider are age- and sex-specific reproduction, survival and dispersal. As population density increase...
