Thermodynamic and metabolic effects on the scaling of production and population energy use (2003, methodology): “…a diverse assortment of plants, animals and unicellular algae and protists (see compiled datasets for literature sources: Niklas 1994; references listed in Enquist & Niklas 2001; Jones et al. 2003; Ernest in press; bird data used in Ricklefs 2000 and obtained from author; Savage et al. in press).”
Animal migration: is there a common migratory syndrome? (2006, background): “There do seem to be relations between fecundity and migration in birds, although the ecology and evolution of clutch size and lifetime fecundity in birds is complex (Ricklefs 2000a, b).”
Avian Life Histories: Is Extended Parental Care the Southern Secret? (2000, background): “…in several aspects of their life histories: laying smaller clutches, laying more clutches per year, longer developmental periods and extended parental care leading to high juvenile survival, and higher adult survival, (see reviews by Skutch 1985; Martin 1996; Ricklefs 2000a,b; also Fogden 1972).”
The Physiology of Life History Trade-Offs in Animals (2001, background): “Three ornithologists were the intellectual predecessors of modern life history thinking: Lack, Skutch, and Moreau (Ricklefs 2000a).”
Ecological and life-history traits explain recent boundary shifts in elevation and latitude of western North American songbirds (2014, methodology): “Thus, clutch size was used as a measure of life-history strategy since it is correlated in birds with age at maturity, and offspring and adult survival (Ricklefs, 2000; Jetz et al., 2008).”
r‐ AND K‐SELECTION REVISITED: THE ROLE OF POPULATION REGULATION IN LIFE‐HISTORY EVOLUTION (2002, background): “All four editions of Ricklefs' Ecology textbook (Ricklefs 1973 to Ricklefs and Miller 2000) include r-and K-selection as one model of life-history evolution.”
