Predictive models of species' distributions are used increasingly in ecological studies investigating features as varied as biodiversity, habitat sele...

Assessing spatial distributions of threatened large carnivores at landscape scales poses formidable challenges because of their rarity and elusiveness...

Management of invasive species and pathogens requires information about the traffic of potential vectors. Such information is often taken from vector ...

1. Research is currently underway to develop genetically engineered viruses that can sterilize pest animals. The technique, known as viral-vectored im...

1. A stochastic individual-based model for simulating the dynamics of an infectious disease in sympatric red and grey squirrel populations is describe...

Active engagement with practitioners is a crucial component of model-based decision-making in conservation management; it can assist with data acquisi...

A simulation model of the population dynamics of the delphacid Nilaparvata lugens on rice in Zhejiang Province, China, was constructed using field pop...

Culling, either of all animals or infected animals only, is often suggested as a way of managing infectious diseases in wildlife populations. However,...

Biological invasions have an anthropogenic origin, and although many species are able to spread on their own within the newly invaded area, long-dista...

In an ecological approach to risk assessment, population models may play an important role. The population dynamic models described take into account ...
