The Consumer-Resource Relationship
by Harmand, Jérôme, Rapaport, Alain, Sari, Tewfik, Lobry, Claude
Professor Levins, one of the leading explorers in the field of integrated population biology, considers the mutual interpenetration and joint evolution of organism and environment, occurring on several levels at once. Physiological and behavioral adaptations to short-term fluctu…
A common tendency in the field of population ecology has been to overlook individual differences by treating populations as homogeneous units; conversely, in behavioral ecology the tendency has been to concentrate on how individual behavior is shaped by evolutionary forces, but …

Stability in model populations
by Mueller, Laurence D., Joshi, Amitabh
fromMonographs in population biology
Reviewing the general theory of population stability, this text critically analyzes techniques for inferring whether a given population is in balance or not. It goes on to show how rigorous empirical research can reveal both the proximal causes of stability and its most evolutio…
