Satellite telemetry data have substantially increased our understanding of habitat use and
foraging behaviour of upper-trophic marine predators, but fall short of providing an understanding
of their social behaviour. We ...

Concurrent habitat and life history influences on effective/census population size ratios in stream-dwelling trout
(2012-03)
Lower effective sizes (Ne) than census sizes (N) are routinely documented in natural
populations, but knowledge of how multiple factors interact to lower N-e/N ratios is often limited.
We show how combined habitat and ...
