MATERNAL TRAITS AND REPRODUCTION IN RICHARDSONS GROUND-SQUIRRELS 

Dobson, F. Stephen; Michener, Gail R.; https://orcid.org/0000-0001-5562-6316 (2022-12-06)
Differences among conspecifics in body mass result from underlying differences in structural size and physiological condition. To determine whether the structural or physiological component of body mass has a stronger ...

The relative importance of life-history variables to population growth rate in mammals: Cole's prediction revisited 

Oli, Madan; Dobson, F. Stephen; 0000-0001-5562-6316 (2023-05-17)
The relative importance of life-history variables to population growth rate (lambda) has substantial consequences for the study of life-history evolution and for the dynamics of biological populations. Using life-history ...

Reproductive Value and the Stochastic Demography of Age-Structured Populations 

Engen, Steinar; Lande, Russell; Saether, Bernt-Erik; Dobson, F. Stephen; 0000-0001-5562-6316 (2020-06-03)
The dynamics of an age-structured population in a fluctuating environment is determined by the stochastic individual contributions from annual survival and fecundity to the total reproductive value of the population the ...
