Social barriers in ecological landscapes: the social resistance hypothesis
Across animal societies, individuals invest time and energy in social interactions. The social
landscape that emerges from these interactions can then generate barriers that limit the …

Carrying capacity of spatially distributed metapopulations
Carrying capacity is a key concept in ecology. A body of theory, based on the logistic
equation, has extended predictions of carrying capacity to spatially distributed, dispersing …

Towards a unified framework for connectivity that disentangles movement and mortality in space and time
Predicting connectivity, or how landscapes alter movement, is essential for understanding
the scope for species persistence with environmental change. Although it is well known that …

Quantifying the contribution of immigration to population dynamics: A review of methods, evidence and perspectives in birds and mammals
The demography of a population is often reduced to the apparent (or local) survival of
individuals and their realised fecundity within a study area defined according to logistical …

A framework for linking dispersal biology to connectivity across landscapes
Context Dispersal typically consists of three components—departure, transience and
settlement—each of which can be influenced by the landscape. A fundamental aspect of …
