• Adaptive management of sika deer populations in Hokkaido, Japan: theory and practice (2010, methodology): “The AM approach, however, has never been applied at a wide spatial scale, because the indicators of ecological change have been validated only in well-defined populations at a small scale (Morellet et al. 2007).”
• Variation in Calf Body Mass in Migratory Caribou: The Role of Habitat, Climate, and Movements (2009, background): “Body mass of juveniles is more sensitive than body mass of adults to environmental and demographic variations (Vincent et al. 1995), and may be a useful parameter for monitoring the general health status of migratory caribou populations (e.g., Morellet et al. 2007).”
• Identifying threshold densities for wild deer in the UK above which negative impacts may occur (2011, background): “Ward et al. (2008b) also strongly advocate this mixed approach, noting that population abundance (even in broad, relative terms), occupance, impacts and local conditions all ought to be assessed to inform management options when ‘balance’ is required (see also Morellet et al. 2007).”
• Challenges and science-based implications for modern management and conservation of European ungulate populations (2017, unknown): “Ungulates are notoriously difficult to count (Morellet et al. 2007; Bonefant et al. 2009).”
• Ranking temperate woody species along a gradient of browsing by deer. (2009, background): “The relationships between deer populations and their habitat are ofmajor concern among foresters and several tools have been developed to improve and evaluate population management policies (Tremblay et al., 2004; Morellet et al., 2007).”
