Dangerously few liaisons: a review of mate-finding Allee effects (2009, background): “We do not have space here to list every study on the topic and every species potentially affected, and instead direct the reader to existing reviews (Dennis 1989; Fowler and Baker 1991; Saether et al. 1996; Wells et al. 1998; Courchamp et al. 1999, 2000, 2008; Stephens and Sutherland 1999, 2000; L”
Allee Effects in Ecology and Conservation (2008, background): “2007) has knock-on effects at the metapopulation level, since larger packs supply larger dispersing cohorts, which are more likely to be successful in establishing new packs; a metapopulation model suggests that this gives rise to an ‘Allee threshold’ in the number of packs, below which the metapopu”
Integrating Epidemiology into Population Viability Analysis: Managing the Risk Posed by Rabies and Canine Distemper to the Ethiopian Wolf (2002, background): “None of these studies include an Allee effect, which may reduce the fecundity and consequent persistence of packs still further at very low densities (Courchamp et al. 2000).”
Crucial importance of pack size in the African wild dog Lycaon pictus (2001, background): “All this has been shown to occur with a theoretical model (Courchamp et al., 2000).”
