Ecological replacement of native red squirrels by invasive greys driven by disease (2003, background): “2000), and field evidence suggests that habitat partitioning between the two species does not occur (Kenward et al. 1998; Wauters et al. 2000).”
Predicting grey squirrel expansion in North Italy: a spatially explicit modelling approach (2001, background): “Based on the results of the sensitivity analysis which identified litter size as the key variable (see Results), we fixed life history parameters at observed average values (Gurnell 1991; Koprowski 1994; Wauters and Gurnell 1999; Wauters et al. 2000) and ran the model 20 times for three different fe”
Alien species and interspecific competition: effects of introduced eastern grey squirrels on red squirrel population dynamics (2004, methodology): “In addition, grey squirrel densities in our experimental sites were still low, especially in site RG1 (Wauters & Gurnell 1999; Wauters et al. 2000; Gurnell et al. 2001), making our conclusions on possible interspecific competition effects conservative.”
Spread and attempted eradication of the grey squirrel (Sciurus carolinensis) in Italy, and consequences for the red squirrel (Sciurus vulgaris) in Eurasia (2003, background): “Recent studies suggest that red squirrel juvenile recruitment is lower when grey squirrels are present (Wauters et al., 2000, 2001).”
