Variation and covariation in survival, dispersal, and population size in barn owls Tyto alba (2003, background): “…showing that natural populations are driven by a combination of density dependence and stochastic environmental factors, and often different factors affect different parts of the population (Leirs et al. 1997; Dennis & Otten 2000; Gaillard et al. 2000; Sæther et al. 2000; Coulson et al. 2001).”
Can we use the young : female ratio to infer ungulate population dynamics? An empirical test using red deer Cervus elaphus as a model (2005, background): “There were large among-year variations in OCH patterns that were not related to variations in pregnancy rates, and which were shown to be generally constant in time (Gaillard et al. 2000).”
Living on the Edge: Viability of Moose in Northeastern Minnesota (2010, background): “Most long-term studies of large herbivorous mammals, in fact, suggest that adult survival is high and varies little from year to year and across populations (Gaillard et al. 1998, 2000).”
Survival and Cause-Specific Mortality of Neonatal Mule Deer Fawns, North-Central New Mexico (2007, background): “Consequently, annual variation in production and survival of fawns can account for 70% of annual variation in population rates of increase (Gaillard et al. 2000).”
Relative influence of human harvest, carnivores, and weather on adult female elk survival across western North America (2013, background): “…include individual age as a covariate, because the data were not available, but other studies demonstrated that age can affect adult ungulate survival patterns and may interact with climate, predation or habitat quality (e.g. Gaillard et al. 2000; Garrott, White & Rotella 2009; Webb et al. 2011).”
LONG LIVING AND REPRODUCTION SKIPPING IN THE FAT DORMOUSE (2003, background): “In herbivores, iteroparity is associated with low adult and high juvenile interannual variance of survival rates (Gaillard et al. 2000).”
Growth of Male White-Tailed Deer: Consequences of Maternal Effects (2009, background): “Despite the need to infer maternal effects when interpreting population demographics (sensu Bowyer et al. 2005), the duration that maternal effects influence large-mammal populations as well as which life-history traits they influence are not well studied (Gaillard et al. 2000).”
The demographic consequences of releasing a population of red deer from culling (2004, positive): “Many previous studies using elasticities and sensitivities have applied retrospective analyses (Gaillard et al. 2000, Sæther and Bakke 2000) in which the elasticities are calculated from an average transition matrix spanning multiple years and then are multiplied by estimates of variation of the…”
Ecological correlates of home‐range size in spring–summer for female roe deer (Capreolus capreolus) in a deciduous woodland (2005, background): “Because roe deer females: (1) do not store large body reserves (income breeder tactic, Andersen, Gaillard et al., 2000) and (2) allocate a high level of energy to each reproductive attempt (Mauget, Mauget & Sempéré, 1999), for a given home-range quality, females with two fawns were expected to hav”
Anti-predator behaviour, space use and habitat selection in female roe deer during the fawning season in a wolf area (2008, background): “Juvenile recruitment is the major factor shaping wild herbivores’ population dynamics (Gaillard, Festa-Bianchet & Yoccoz, 1998; Gaillard et al., 2000) and, where predators are present, it is the most common cause of neonatal mortality in large ungulates (Linnell, Aanes & Andersen, 1995).”
The concept of overgrazing and its role in management of large herbivores (2006, background): “The next vital rate affected by increasing density is juvenile survival, before, finally, adult survival decreases (Gaillard et al. 2000).”
REVIEW: The management of wild large herbivores to meet economic, conservation and environmental objectives (2004, background): “These fundamental studies have focused on the relationships between population density, weather and individual survival rates of different sex/ age classes (Gaillard, Festa-Bianchet & Yoccoz 1998; Gaillard et al . 2000 ).”
