Interstage flow matrices: population statistic derived from matrix population models

The paper introduces the interstage flow matrix as a population statistic to decompose population growth rate into contributions from developmental stage transitions across different life history groups.

Albatrosses employ orientation and routing strategies similar to yacht racers

This study compares the navigation strategies of wandering albatrosses and yacht racers, finding similar wind-optimized travel patterns despite differences in time-minimization.

Multispecies site occupancy modeling and study design for spatially replicated environmental DNA metabarcoding

This paper develops a multispecies site occupancy model for eDNA metabarcoding to improve study design and species detection efficiency by accounting for workflow variability and detection bias.

Estimating fish population abundance by integrating quantitative data on environmental DNA and hydrodynamic modelling

The paper estimates fish population abundance by integrating environmental DNA data with hydrodynamic modeling, showing results comparable to echo sounder methods.

Macroscale estimates of species abundance reveal evolutionary drivers of biodiversity

The paper estimates macroscale species abundance distributions to show that speciation rates and geographic factors influence biodiversity patterns.
