Different scales of spatial segregation of two species of feather mites on the wings of a passerine bird
Download2011
Mestre, A., Mesquita-Joanes, F., Proctor, H., Monros, J. S.
The \"condition-specific competition hypothesis\" proposes that coexistence of 2 species is possible when spatial or temporal variations in environmental conditions exist and each species responds differently to those conditions. The distribution of different species of feather mites on their...

Disentangling root system responses to neighbours: identification of novel root behavioural strategies
Download2015-01-01
Plants live in a social environment, with interactions among neighbours a ubiquitous aspect of life.Though many of these interactions occur in the soil, our understanding of how plants alter root growth and the patterns of soil occupancy in response to neighbours is limited. This is in contrast...

Veit, R. R., Banks, J. E., Holmes, E. E., Lewis, M. A.
Most of the fundamental elements of ecology, ranging from individual behavior to species abundance, diversity, and population dynamics, exhibit spatial variation. Partial differential equation models provide a means of melding organism movement with population processes and have been used...

Heggerud, Christopher M., Xu, Jingjing, Wang, Hao, Lewis, Mark A., Zurawell, Ron W., Loewen, Charlie J. G., Vinebrooke, Rolf D., Ramazi, Pouria
Abstract (description taken from article) In this paper, we consider a diffusive-advective predator-prey system in a spatially heterogeneous environment subject to a hostile boundary condition, where the interaction term is governed by a Holling type II functional response. We investigate the...

McCauley, E., Lewis, M. A., Lutscher, F.
River ecosystems are the prime example of environments where unidirectional flow influences the dispersal of individuals. Spatial patterns of community composition and species replacement emerge from complex interplays of hydrological, geochemical, biological, and ecological factors. Local...
