Kin Selection and the Evolutionary Theory of Aging (2007, background): “Carey & Judge (2001) and Carey (2003) proposed a verbal model for self-reinforcing life span extension in humans.”
The pace and shape of ageing (2011, background): “Much is known about the pace of ageing (Finch 1990; Carey & Judge 2000; Carey 2003), but knowledge about the shape of ageing is limited.”
Stage, age and individual stochasticity in demography (2009, background): “Longevity is an important demographic characteristic (Carey 2003).”
Body size, energy metabolism and lifespan (2005, background): “Moreover, there are probably systematic changes in activity (e.g. Minois et al., 2001; Carey, 2003) and RMR (e.”
Perturbation analysis of nonlinear matrix population models (2008, background): “This perspective has a long history (e.g., Pearl et al. 1927) and enough recent examples (e.g., Wachter and Finch 1997, Carey 2003, Wachter and Bulatao 2003, Keyfitz and Caswell 2005) that it is now referred to as biodemography (Carey and Vaupel 2005).”
STATISTICS OF EXTREMES: MODELING ECOLOGICAL DISTURBANCES (2005, background): “Another topic with ecological implications is longevity, particularly the variation in life spans among different species of plants and animals (Carey 2003).”
