Assessing the Population Consequences of Disturbance and Climate Change for the Pacific Walrus
D. L. Johnson, J. M. Eisaguirre, R. L. Taylor, J. L. Garlich-Miller
This study develops a PCoD model for Pacific walruses to assess how climate change and anthropogenic disturbance affect population dynamics, finding that both factors reduce carrying capacity and growth rate, but mitigation efforts can lessen these impacts.
