• The Response of Terrestrial Ecosystems to Climate Variability Associated with the North Atlantic Oscillation (2013, background): “Kilda, survival of Soay sheep is negatively correlated with March rainfall [Catchpole et al., 2000].”
• Patterns of reproductive effort in male ungulates (2004, unknown): “Intrasexually, yearling males are reported to have both a lower (Ballard, Whitman & Reed, 1991; Owen-Smith, 1993; Ditchkoff et al., 2001) and a higher rate of natural mortality than prime-aged males (Clutton-Brock et al., 1982; Catchpole et al., 2000; Festa-Bianchet, Gaillard & Côte, 2003).”
• Measuring senescence in wild animal populations: towards a longitudinal approach (2008, methodology): “In the simplest case, age class models have been used to show significant declines in average survival probability amongst the oldest age group (Gaillard et al. 1993; Catchpole et al. 2000).”
• Life history correlates of oxidative damage in a free‐living mammal population (2009, background): “Previous analysis of life history, parasitological and morphological data suggests important differences between lamb, yearling and adult age classes (Catchpole et al. 2000; Clutton-Brock & Pemberton 2004; Coulson et al. 2001).”
• Empirical Evidence of Density- Dependence in Populations of Large Herbivores (2009, background): “…et al. (2001) Winter juvenile survival (Scotland) Yearling survival Adult survival Juvenile survival (female) St Hirta Archipelago (Scotland) No Catchpole et al. (2000) Juvenile survival (male) Survival (senescent female) Ovis canadensis Winter juvenile survival Ram mountain (Canada) Yes…”
• Predictors of reproductive cost in female Soay sheep (2005, methodology): “We confirmed previous findings (Catchpole et al. 2000) that survival probability changed according to age and environmental conditions (Table 3).”
• Estimating the pattern of synchrony in fluctuating populations (2005, background): “In contrast, negative values of NAO are associated with decrease in temperature and precipitation in north-western Europe (Hurrell 1995; Mysterud et al. 2000; Catchpole et al. 2000).”
• Sexual dimorphism, survival and dispersal in red deer (2004, methodology): “Although various previous studies have reported differences in survival rates between males and females of different ages (Jorgenson, Festa-Bianchet, Lucherini, and Wishart 1997; Catchpole et al. 2000 ) there are relative few studies of large vertebrates that allow comparisons between survival rate”
