Herbivory by Geese Inhibits Tidal Freshwater Wetland Restoration Success by Justus Jobe, Cairn Krafft, Mikaila Milton, Keryn Gedan

“…The causal herbivore, in this case, was resident, non-migratory Canada geese (<i>Branta canadensis</i>), which have increased dramatically over the last several decades and had high population densities throughout the study period. These findings suggest that management activities to reduce the population sizes of non-migratory goose populations will support greater wetland plant diversity.…”

TAIWAN'S INTEGRATING SURVEILLANCE, EPIDEMIOLOGICAL DISCOVERIES, AND PUBLIC HEALTH POLICIES CAN GUIDE GLOBAL PREVENTION AND CONTROL OF DENGUE by C.-C. King, H.-Y. Ko, T.-C. Chan, Y.-H. Pan, T.-S. Ho, T.-H. Tung, T.-H. Wen, C.-D. Chen, C.-Y. Pan, H.-P. Ho, J.-J. Huang, L.-S. Tsai, L.-H. Chiang, C.-G. Huang, P.-Y. Shu, C.-R. Yang, W. Chen, C.-H. Yu, C.-C. Ku

“…However, in areas with low population densities, both conditions can lead to greater percentage of severe dengue cases Therefore., interrupting DENV transmission efficiently can reduce severe/fatal cases. (5) Severe dengue cases frequently occur in tempo-spatial dengue clusters implying the importance to find out the sources of infection. …”

Small Islands as Ecotourism Destinations: A Central Mediterranean Perspective by Karl Agius, Nadia Theuma, Alan Deidun, Liberato Camilleri

“…Larger islands with higher population densities were found to experience habitat fragmentation, and protected areas were thus in some cases relatively small and dispersed. …”

The issue of personal safety on dolomite: a probability-based evaluation with respect to single-storey residential houses by H A D Kirsten, G J Heath, I S Venter, N Y G Trollip, A C Oosthuizen

“…Depending on the incidence of each probability, it has been possible to determine the risk associated with development on dolomite for a single-storey dwelling. Recommended population densities are proposed for each Inherent Risk Class, with the exceptions of Risk Classes 6, 7 and 8, where no residential development is catered for, in line with industry standards.…”

Soil animal communities of planted birch stands in central Finland by Huhta, Veikko, Räty, Mika

“…The faunal communities were markedly different in plantations established on spruce forest soil and on arable soil. âBirch after Spruceâ communities were relatively similar to those of coniferous forests, though the population densities were generally lower. âBirch after Fieldâ communities were sparse and could be characterised as âimpoverished forest communitiesâ, except in Lumbricidae and Enchytraeidae that have affinities with deciduous forests and cultural landscapes. …”

Predator–prey dynamics with intraspecific competition and an Allee effect in the predator population by Erin N. Bodine, Anne E. Yust

“…However, empirical evidence suggests that predator–prey systems exhibiting density-dependent growth at small population densities still can achieve coexistence in the long term. …”

Microsatellite loci development and population genetics in Neotropical fish Curimata mivartii (Characiformes: Curimatidae) by Ricardo M. Landínez-García, Edna J. Marquez

“…Curimata mivartii, a member of this family, is considered a short-distance migratory species (≤100 km), categorized by the International Union for Conservation of Nature as a near threatened species, based on its declining population densities and habitat disturbance and fragmentation. …”

Facultative Mutualisms and <i>θ</i>-Logistic Growth: How Larger Exponents Promote Global Stability of Co-Existence Equilibria by Paul Georgescu, Hong Zhang

“…To provide a unifying perspective, we first introduce and discuss a generic stability framework, finding sufficient stability conditions expressed in terms of reproductive numbers computed at high population densities. To this purpose, an approach based on the theory of monotone dynamical systems is employed. …”

What happens if density increases? Conservation implications of population influx into refuges by Metcalf, C, Hampson, K, Koons, D

“…Sudden catastrophic events like fires, hurricanes, tsunamis, landslides and deforestation increase population densities in habitat fragments, as fleeing animals encroach into these refuges. …”

Spatial heterogeneity in risk of secondary parasitism in a natural population of an aphid parasitoid by Van Veen, F, Muller, C, Adriaanse, I, Godfray, C

“…The densities of healthy and parasitized aphids were sampled fortnightly over seven growing seasons. Population densities were relatively stable and parasitism rates were low (∼6%). 3. …”

What Caused Declines in Intertidal Invertebrate Populations around Fukushima Daiichi Nuclear Power Plant after the 2011 Great East Japan Earthquake, Tsunami, and Nuclear Disaster? by Toshihiro Horiguchi, Keita Kodama

“…Finally, we present possible causal factors for strange or abnormal phenomena observed in intertidal biota near FDNPP, namely declines in population densities and number of species of invertebrates, delayed recovery from these declines, and continuous sexual maturation in the rock shell population.…”
