  • Intraspecific home range scaling: a case study from the owl limpet (Lottia gigantea)

    Creator:
    Fenberg, Phillip B.
    Abstract:
    Background: The owl limpet (Lottia gigantea) is an ectothermic invertebrate that inhabits the rocky intertidal zone where it territorially defends home ranges and grazes algae growing on the rocks. Among endothermic species, home range scales isometrically with body mass. Hypothesis: Home range area scales isometrically (scaling exponent ∼1.0) across individuals...

  • Shrimp adjust their sex ratio to fluctuating age distributions

    Creator:
    Charnov, Eric L. and Hannah, Robert W.
    Abstract:
    Long-term data sets that quantitatively confirm basic ecological theory are rare for field populations. Highly variable recruitment often causes wide temporal variation in population age distribution and basic theory for adaptive sex ratio often predicts ‘sex ratio tracking’ to match the fluctuating age distribution. Using sex-changing shrimp as a model...
