Senescence rates are determined by ranking on the fast-slow life-history continuum.
- O. R. Jones, Jean-Michel Gaillard, +31 authors T. Coulson
- Biology, Medicine
- Ecology letters
- 1 July 2008
Comparative analyses of survival senescence by using life tables have identified generalizations including the observation that mammals senesce faster than similar-sized birds. These generalizations… Expand
How Life History Influences Population Dynamics in Fluctuating Environments
- Bernt-Erik Sæther, T. Coulson, +16 authors H. Weimerskirch

- 25 October 2013
A major question in ecology is how age-specific variation in demographic parameters influences population dynamics. Based on long-term studies of growing populations of birds and mammals, we analyze… Expand
Inbreeding and loss of genetic variation in a reintroduced population of Mauritius Kestrel.

Many populations have recovered from severe bottlenecks either naturally or through intensive conservation management. In the past, however, few conservation programs have monitored the genetic… Expand
Regional, seasonal and annual variations in the structure of Purple Sandpiper Calidris maritime populations in Britain
- M. Nicoll, R. W. Summers, L. Underhill, K. Brockie, R. Rae
- Geography
- 3 April 2008
Samples of Purple Sandpipers were captured around the coasts of Britain. Analysis of their bill-length distributions enabled the sex ratios and percentages of ‘long-billed’ and ‘short-billed’ birds… Expand
Climate change and the risks associated with delayed breeding in a tropical wild bird population
- D. Senapathi, M. Nicoll, C. Teplitsky, C. Jones, K. Norris
- Biology, Medicine

There is growing evidence of changes in the timing of important ecological events, such as flowering in plants and reproduction in animals, in response to climate change, with implications for… Expand
Population regulation of territorial species: both site dependence and interference mechanisms matter
- M. Nevoux, O. Gimenez, Debora Arlt, M. Nicoll, Carl Jones, K. Norris

- Proceedings of the Royal Society B: Biological…
- 22 July 2011
Spatial patterns of site occupancy are commonly driven by habitat heterogeneity and are thought to shape population dynamics through a site-dependent regulatory mechanism. When examining this,… Expand
Evidence for long‐term regional changes in precipitation on the East Coast Mountains in Mauritius
- D. Senapathi, F. Underwood, Emily Black, M. Nicoll, Ken Norris
- Environmental Science
- 1 June 2009
Global climate change and its impacts are being increasingly studied and precipitation trends are one of the measures of quantifying climate change especially in the tropics. This study uses daily… Expand
Geographical variation in the breeding biology of the Purple Sandpiper Calidris maritima
- R. Summers, M. Nicoll
- Biology
- 1 April 2004
Studies in Iceland (66°N) and Svalbard (78°N), combined with the results of previous work, allowed geographical comparisons of different aspects of the breeding biology of the Purple Sandpiper… Expand

Summary
1
We studied a reintroduced population of the formerly critically endangered Mauritius kestrel Falco punctatus Temmink from its inception in 1987 until 2002, by which time the population… Expand
