Factoring scales of spatial and temporal variation in fish abundance in a subtropical estuary
We employed a new approach linking multivariate and time series analyses to identify common versus unique spatiotemporal components of abundance variation of marine spawning fishes recruiting into a subtropical Western Atlantic estuary. Based on a 10 yr standardized monthly data set, we also investigated patterns of association for local and regional factors with annual and inter-annual variati...
متن کاملChanges at Multiple Spatial Scales
Change detection on rasterized data is extremely dependent on accurate radiometric and geometric rectification. The development of processing tools able to minimise these requirements has been recognised since the late eighties. In the present paper we present a methodology for detecting changes on multidate satellite images with different radiometric and geometric characteristics via Multireso...
متن کاملMapping Functional Traits: Comparing Abundance and Presence-Absence Estimates at Large Spatial Scales
Efforts to quantify the composition of biological communities increasingly focus on functional traits. The composition of communities in terms of traits can be summarized in several ways. Ecologists are beginning to map the geographic distribution of trait-based metrics from various sources of data, but the maps have not been tested against independent data. Using data for birds of the Western ...
متن کاملDensity dependence in marine fish populations revealed at small and large spatial scales.
Experimental manipulation of population density has frequently been used to demonstrate demographic density dependence. However, such studies are usually small scale and typically provide evidence of spatial (within-generation) density dependence. It is often unclear whether small-scale, experimental tests of spatial density dependence will accurately describe temporal (between-generation) dens...
متن کاملVariation among natural isolates of Neurospora on small spatial scales.
Although species of Neurospora are among the most studied model organisms in genetics and biochemistry, basic questions remain with respect to their ecology and population biology. In this study, we sought to clarify relationships among individuals over a small spatial scale, toward assessing both local variation and mode of colonization. Isolates of Neurospora were collected after fires in the...
