Animal Population Dynamics and Environmental Change
studies how animal populations change over time in response to environmental factors, which is crucial for understanding species survival and ecosystem health in a changing climate.
Concept (18) →
population dynamics
Changes in population size and structure over time driven by vital rates and environmental factors
demography
environmental drivers
community structure
temporal flexibility
Variation in interspecific interactions across time periods over which organisms co-occur that leads to flexible network structure
subsurface discharge
survival
microclimate heterogeneity
Variation in microclimatic conditions across small spatial scales, including differences in slope, aspect, and elevation that create diverse microclim...
