The growing number of artificial structures in estuarine, coastal and marine environments is
causing “ocean sprawl”. Artificial structures do not only modify marine and coastal …

We review the concepts and research associated with measuring fear and its consequences
for foraging. When foraging, animals should and do demand hazardous duty pay. They …

Population dynamics and animal behaviour are two subjects that have developed almost
independently, despite widespread acceptance of the idea that they must be related. The …

Live corals are the key habitat forming organisms on coral reefs, contributing to both
biological and physical structure. Understanding the importance of corals for reef fishes is …

We experimented on how illumination, habitat structure, and three different species of owls
affected the foraging behavior of Gerbillus allenbyi and G. pyramidum, two gerbil species …

Patterns in juvenile mortality rates can have a profound affect on the distribution and
abundance of adult individuals, and may be the result of a number of interacting factors …

Distribution of mobile animals may reflect decisions on how to balance conflicting demands
associated with foraging and avoiding predators. A simple optimality model predicts that …

We present a method of comparing data on habitat use and availability that allows
availability to differ among observations. This method is applicable when habitats change …

Greater structural complexity is often associated with greater abundance and diversity,
perhaps because high complexity habitats reduce predation and competition. Using 16 …

The long‐standing interest in density dependence in demographic rates of organisms stems
from its influence in bounding population fluctuations and in shaping spatial patterns of …
