The roles of body size and phylogeny in fast and slow life histories (2009, background): “…1988; Duarte and Alcaraz 1989; Gaillard et al. 1989; Read and Harvey 1989; Elgar 1990; Blackburn 1991; Franco and Silvertown 1996; Sæther et al. 1996; Heppell et al. 2000; Ricklefs 2000; Sæther and Bakke 2000; Fisher et al. 2001; Bennett and Owens 2002; Oli 2004; but see also Bielby et al. 2007).”
Relative importance of avian life-history variables to population growth rate (2006, unknown): “We evaluated the magnitude of reproduction relative to the timing of reproduction as a proxy for the relative importance of life-history variables (Oli and Dobson, 2003; Oli, 2004) by examining the relationship between the F/˛ and m/˛ ratios, and the elasticities.”
Fast and slow life histories of mammals (2007, background): “…the life histories of species as fast or slow and compared this second axis of life history to variables that have been suggested to follow the continuum, such as generation time and the ratio of fecundity or fertility to age at maturity (Oli, 2004; Gaillard et al., 2005; Oli & Dobson, 2005).”
Fundamental Dimensions of Environmental Risk (2009, background): “The equality of body size between mainland and island possums is consistent with a larger body of data in mammals indicating that suites of correlated LH traits can co-evolve, independent of body size (Bielby et al. 2007; Oli 2004).”
Pace-of-life syndromes: a framework for the adaptive integration of behaviour, physiology and life history (2018, result): “As supported by comparative analyses in mammals (Promislow and Harvey 1990; Oli 2004; Bielby et al. 2007), birds (Saether 1988), reptiles (Clobert et al. 1988; Bauwens and DiazUriarte 1997), fish (Winemiller and Rose 1992), insects (Johansson 2000) and plants (Franco and Silvertown 1996;…”
Risk-taking behavior, urbanization and the pace of life in birds (2018, background): “Consequently, we empirically defined the fast-slow continuum as the combination of life history traits that better predicts the relative sensitivity (i.e., elasticity) of population growth to changes in adult survival (Caswell 2000; Oli and Dobson 2003; Oli 2004).”
Population dynamics in wild boar Sus scrofa: ecology, elasticity of growth rate and implications for the management of pulsed resource consumers (2005, background): “These changes in the ranking of elasticities may be viewed as moves along the fast–slow continuum scale of mammalian life histories (Oli & Dobson 2003; Oli 2004).”
From traits to life‐history strategies: Deconstructing fish community composition across European seas (2017, methodology): “Due to their simplicity, these linear models of life history 84 strategies have been used in numerous studies ranging from population dynamics (e.g. Oli 2004) to 85 communities spatial pattern (e.g. Wiedmann et al. 2014).”
Exploration strategies map along fast–slow metabolic and life‐history continua in muroid rodents (2009, background): “Among life-history traits, age at first reproduction (AFR) is held to provide a reliable index of the ranking of mammal species along the fast–slow continuum (Gaillard et al. 2005; but see Oli 2004).”
