Nonlinear impacts of climatic variability on the density‐dependent regulation of an insect vector of disease (2012, background): “…2002), and (3) Considering either observation error or environmental stochasticity, to assess whether unexplained factors homogenously affected all individuals, as expected under environmental stochasticity (Mangel, 2006), or more likely represented systematic errors in our records (Bolker, 2008).”
Exploring the Isotopic Niche: Isotopic Variance, Physiological Incorporation, and the Temporal Dynamics of Foraging (2015, background): “i 1 i : (2) 4 where ( ) is the gamma function [?, cf.]]Mangel:2006wa. Here, a iis the dispersion parameter, which is proportional to the mean encounter rate, and cmeasures the time between encounters [54, 53, 55]. Integrating across all possible values of i, we obtain the Negative Binomial density w”
