This NDD process is directly linked to the dispersal process because seeds dispersed relatively far should gain a fitness advantage by becoming locally rare [10], [11], [13].
Therefore, the main focus of our study was to investigate how gray mouse lemur males disperse and to describe different aspects of the dispersal process.
The underlying conceptualization of the dispersal process can impact the results of dispersal models.
"Climate change, fragmentation and animal declines are driving the seed dispersal process to the brink of extinction in most human-modified landscapes today".
We have structured our paper around three interconnected topics that help us to discuss critical points regarding the biological aspects of the dispersal process.
Instead, both the mean population birth and death rates, and the landscape composition, are much more important in determining the probability of extinction than the dispersal process.
Despite the importance of conservation and management of the European hare, a game species that has declined throughout Europe, little is known about its natal dispersal process.
Every morning, the scientists transferred a quarter of each population to the wells on either side of it, simulating a natural dispersal process like fish swimming from one region of a lake to another.
First, the use of hourly meteorological data with VOL-CALPUFF, which allows for wind field variations with time and space and has a strong influence on the ash dispersal process.
We propose a prototype of a GIS-based spatially explicit model of dispersal agent behavior (SEMODAR) to simulate the seed dispersal process by considering the unique behavioral characteristics of each seed dispersal agent.
Despite the inevitable fact of the complexity of the dispersal process, patch-type dependencies of dispersal decisions modelled as emigration and immigration are usually missing in theoretical dispersal models.
