Fish predation and trapping for rusty crayfish (Orconectes rusticus) control: a whole-lake experiment (2006, unknown): “…used to determine which age classes to protect for conservation of endangered populations (Crouse et al. 1987), to protect for sustainable forestry (Freckleton et al. 2003) and fishery practices (Frisk et al. 2002), or to exploit for control of pests or invaders (Shea and Kelly 1998; Parker 2000).”
Population Dynamics of the Dioecious Amazonian Palm Mauritia flexuosa: Simulation Analysis of Sustainable Harvesting (2008, background): “A second study of the same palm species showed that density dependence, as well as timing of harvest, must be considered for accurate assessment of population responses to harvesting (Freckleton et al. 2003).”
The theta‐logistic is unreliable for modelling most census data (2010, unknown): “For a population growing from low abundance, the parameter h reflects those aspects of a species’ evolved life history (demographic rates) that determine how abruptly growth slows as abundance interacts with resource availability (Freckleton et al. 2003; Sibly et al. 2005) and type of competition (J”
What do matrix population models reveal about the sustainability of non‐timber forest product harvest? (2011, methodology): “In addition to k, elasticity analyses (Caswell 2001) are commonly used to predict the effects of NTFP harvest and suggest management strategies to reduce harvesting impacts (Ratsirarson, Silander & Richard 1996; Anderson & Putz 2002; Freckleton et al. 2003; Guedje et al. 2007).”
General guidelines for invasive plant management based on comparative demography of invasive and native plant populations (2008, background): “The timing of management in a dense population is essential (Freckleton et al. 2003) because the relaxation of density dependence early in the growing season may lead to over-compensatory reproduction and subsequent rapid expansion of the population (Buckley et al.”
Long-term demographic fluctuations in an orchid species driven by weather: implications for conservation planning (2006, background): “Density-independent factors are likely to be major drivers for population dynamics in plants at the range margin, although density-dependent regulation may occur (Wills et al. 1997; Gillman & Dodd 2000; Freckleton et al. 2003).”
