Changes in phenology mediate vertebrate population responses to temperature globally - Nature Communications
Abstract Phenotypic responses to climate affect individual fitness, but the extent to which this translates into effects on population dynamics remains poorly understood. We assemble 213 time series on phenotypes and population sizes of wild vertebrates globally and match them with local climate data. Our meta-analysis shows that morphological traits are mostly climate insensitive.
Unclear relationships between mean survival rate and its environmental variance in vertebrates
1 INTRODUCTION Recent and ongoing anthropogenic environmental changes, such as global warming, are resulting in increased environmental fluctuations (IPCC, 2022). Such fluctuations in the external environment causes temporal variation in demographic parameters (e.g. annual survival rate and reproduction) over time, from here on referred to as environmental variance (EV, also denoted as ‘process variance’).
Key-Value Pairs and NoSQL Databases: A Novel Concept to Manage Biologging Data in Data Repositories
Biodiversity Information Science and Standards, Aug 2023 Traditional data scheme concepts for biologging data previously relied on traditional relational databases and fixed normalized tables. In practice, this means that a repository contains separate, fixed table structures for each type of sensor data. Prominent examples are the current Wireless Remote Animal Monitoring (WRAM) data schema or the now discontinued ZoaTrack approach.
Partitioning variance in population growth for models with environmental and demographic stochasticity
Estimating contributions The decomposition of environmental variation relies on approximating the environmental realized growth rate using a first order Taylor expansion, which may not be accurate if there is strong environmental variation or strong non-linearity in the response to the environment. In our case study the average relative error was a modest −1%, but was higher over parts of the posterior distribution and also higher for the alternative model.
