From the red grouse to the Ethiopian bush-crow, bird populations around the world can
provide us with vital insights into the effects of climate change on species and ecosystems …

In this review, we summarize available data on nest success, chick survival and reproductive
output, and adult and juvenile survival of five meadow breeding waders in Europe: Eurasian …

Global energy demand continues to grow and tidal and wave energy generation devices
can provide a significant source of renewable energy. Technological developments in …

Events happening in one season can affect life‐history traits at (the) subsequent season (s)
by carry‐over effects. Wintering conditions are known to affect breeding success, but few …

Traditionally, state-space models are fitted to data where there is uncertainty in the
observation or measurement of the system. State-space models are partitioned into an …

Infectious diseases can cause considerable mortality in vertebrate populations, especially
when a new pathogen emerges. Quantifying the impact of diseases on wild populations and …

In recent years, marine protected areas (MPA s) excluding all or some fishing activities have
become widely applied as a tool to rebuild marine ecosystems and fisheries, but still, our …

1 Introduction e-surge (which stands for MultiEvent Generalized Survival Estimation) is a
program for fitting Multievent models [37] to capture-recapture (CR) data. Multievent models …

Mark-recapture models are extensively used in quantitative population ecology, providing
estimates of population vital rates, such as survival, that are difficult to obtain using other …

Although senescence has been described for various fitness components in a wide range of
animal species, few studies have studied senescence in long‐lived species, and little is …
