Can managing wildlife populations to reduce density help prevent zoonotic disease outbreaks? What are some examples of density-dependent factors influencing the dynamics of amphibian populations?

Density-dependent factors are factors that limit the growth of a population due to the size of the population. May 6, 2022 ... Factors independent of, or dependent on, fish density (number per area) can impact recruitment. Increased fish densities can intensify ... In population ecology, density-dependent processes occur when population growth rates are regulated by the density of a population. Jul 15, 2005 ... Growth factor receptors, extracellular matrix receptors, and cell-cell adhesion molecules co-operate in regulating the activities of ... Oct 27, 2013 ... Besides temperature, we found that rainfall was a further important factor only in the warmer area (Trento province). Abundant rainfall during ... Understanding how multiple extrinsic (density-independent) factors and intrinsic (density-dependent) mechanisms influence population dynamics has become ... We define density-dependent limiting factors as factors that affect the per capita growth rate of a population differently depending on how dense the ... Population growth can be determined by density-dependent or density-independent factors. Density dependent environmental factors are influenced by the ... We conclude that immature snowy owls that irrupt into eastern North America are limited by density-dependent factors, such as increased competition forcing ...
