This study uses an integrated population model to analyze how predator recovery and climate change affect elk demography over 36 years in eastern Oregon, finding that bottom-up factors like drought have a stronger impact than top-down predator effects.

This study evaluates symbolic regression's ability to recover population dynamics equations from field-based time series, finding that sampling density and process noise significantly affect equation recovery.

This study identifies adult female survival as the key factor influencing population growth in mule and black-tailed deer, showing it explains 62% of variation in lambda, with populations declining when survival drops below 70%.
