متن کاملDoes intruder group size and orientation affect flight initiation distance in birds?
Does intruder group size and orientation affect flight initiation distance in birds?— Wildlife managers use flight initiation distance (FID), the distance animals flee an approaching predator, to determine set back distances to minimize human impacts on wildlife. FID is typically estimated by a single person; this study examined the effects of intruder number and orientation on FID. Three diffe...
متن کاملDoes FCS Association Size Affect Credit Availability?
An analysis of the characteristics of farm businesses by size of FCS direct lending association suggests that further consolidation of FCS lending should have limited negative impacts on credit availability. Commercial-sized farm businesses with FCS real estate debt appeared similar to those who obtained credit from competing lenders, but smaller associations and those with fewer stockholders p...
متن کاملInterspecific pairwise relationships among body size, clutch size and latitude: deconstructing a macroecological triangle in birds
A large body of research dating back to the 19th century has shown evidence for consistent relationships between ecological variables across geographical space (Lomolino et al., 2006; Gaston et al., 2008). These so-called ecogeographical ‘rules’ are often observed both within and among species and across lineages. Here we focus on three of the most familiar Department of Biology, University of ...
متن کاملDoes Body Size Optimization Result in Skewed Body Size Distribution on a Logarithmic Scale?
Kozlowski and Weiner (1997) challenged the idea that interspecific allometries reflect unitary functional relationships between parameters that are shared by all of the species within a set. They suggested that these allometries might also be produced as a by-product of underlying intraspecific processes. In the course of their argument, Kozlowski and Weiner developed a model for the optimal ad...
