The use of stable isotopic techniques to study animal diets and trophic levels requires a priori estimates of discrimination factors (Δ¹³C and Δ¹⁵N, a...

Marine protected areas (MPAs) have been advocated for the protection of threatened marine mammals, but there is no empirical evidence that they are ef...

Reliable estimates of population parameters are often necessary for conservation management but these are hard to obtain for elusive, rare and wide-ra...

The following is virtually the authors' summary. A small static population of Schistocerca gregaria (Forsk.) confined to an area of Heliotropium aegyp...

Mark-recapture models are valuable for assessing diverse demographic and behavioural parameters, yet the precision of traditional estimates is often c...

For the overwhelming majority of species, we lack long-term information on the dynamics of populations. As a consequence, we face considerable uncerta...
