MATRIX MODEL INVESTIGATION OF INVASIVE SPECIES CONTROL: BULLFROGS ON VANCOUVER ISLAND (2005, methodology): “Strictly speaking, inference from sensitivity and elasticity analyses applies only to very small changes around the transition elements, because of potential non-linearity in the relationship between the transition elements and l (De Kroon et al. 2000).”
Estimating and Analyzing Demographic Models Using the popbio Package in R (2007, background): “The sensitivity and elasticity matrices identify matrix elements with the greatest absolute or proportional eects on population growth rate ( de Kroon et al. 2000 ).”
What makes a species vulnerable to extinction? Comparative life-history traits of two sympatric snakes (2002, unknown): “Using these demographic parameters as a basis, a Leslie transition matrix (Leslie 1945; Caswell 2001) was constructed, and eigenanalysis was used to predict the mean generation time (mean age of parents of offspring of a cohort), stable age structure, and proportional sensitivities (elasticities) of”
Are plant populations in fragmented habitats recruitment limited? Tests with an amazonian herb (2003, background): “As transition elements change their elasticities may change as well, often in unanticipated ways (Mills et al. 1999, de Kroon et al. 2000).”
The use of demographic sensitivity analysis in marine species conservation planning (2004, methodology): “However, as with applications of survival elasticity, our analysis should be applied with caution as a ‘‘first cut’’ for management recommendations, and primarily used for hypothesis generation and application to more complex models ( de Kroon et al., 2000 ).”
White-nose syndrome is likely to extirpate the endangered Indiana bat over large parts of its range (2013, background): “…estimates over which we evaluated model sensitivity varied among parameters, we also calculated the proportional effect, i.e., model elasticity ei (de Kroon et al., 1986, 2000; Caswell, 2001; Morris and Doak, 2002): ei ¼ ri k Dk Dri : Elasticities indicate relative importance of stage…”
WEED POPULATIONS AND CROP ROTATIONS: EXPLORING DYNAMICS OF A STRUCTURED PERIODIC SYSTEM (2002, methodology): “This choice also allows application of a considerable body of theory (de Kroon et al. 1986, Caswell 1989, Caswell and Trevisan 1994, Benton and Grant 1999, de Kroon et al. 2000).”
Life Histories and Vulnerability to Exploitation of Elasmobranchs: Inferences from Elasticity, Perturbation and Phylogenetic Analyses (2005, background): “Elasticity analysis provided insights into what aspects of a species' life history will play important roles in understanding population level changes in response to both short-term changes in harvest policies and to longer term evolutionary pressures (de Kroon et al. 2000).”
