The paper synthesizes population growth rate data from 165 plant populations to show precipitation has a larger effect on population growth than temperature, with short-lived species showing stronger responses.

The study finds that the demographic buffering strategy of Testudo graeca tortoises has a threshold effectiveness, with population viability declining when drought frequency exceeds three per decade.

The paper introduces a framework for quantifying demographic resilience across species to improve ecological resilience assessment and management.

This study examines demographic performance of European tree species at their hot and cold edges, finding differing constraints on growth, survival, and lifespan.

The paper analyzes how climate change affects mammal demographics globally, finding that most species experience mixed demographic responses with some rates increasing and others declining.

The paper assesses how marine threats affect seabird recovery after predator eradication, finding that most species are not negatively impacted, but some are vulnerable.

The paper tests Finch's hypothesis that modular organisms may escape senescence by analyzing plant and animal data, finding support in plants but less clarity in animals.

This study estimates the economic value of saltmarsh habitats for UK commercial fisheries using a residency index that incorporates species life histories and habitat use.

The paper compares life history strategies between aquatic and terrestrial species, finding similar trade-offs but distinct strategies shaped by environmental adaptations.
