Interactions Between Growing Predators and Growing Preye classified as competitive, mutualistic or predatory; and then they are represented by -/-, +/+, or -/+ pairs of elements in a community matrix. These relationships are often diagramed by a food web that represents the presumed trophic connections among species in a community. Species within a trop

Resource Depletion and Habitat Segregation by Competitors Under Predation Hazardshifts, within a lifetime, from carnivory to herbivory (e.g., some turtles; Clark and Gibbons 1969), or from herbivory to carnivory (e.g., some copepods; Neill and Peacock 1980), or from aquatic to terrestrial habitats (e.g., many amphibians). Many other species show large shifts in prey size or hab

Asymmetries in Competitive and Predatory Interactions in Fish Populations undergo size-specific changes in niche, generally involving an increase in the mean size of prey eaten. Considering foraging efficiency alone, these ontogenetic niche shifts can be related to morphological changes and increasing energetic costs. The former is a result of an increased capacity to ca

In short, small/young individuals may have very different ecologies than larger/older individuals in the same population. In Zooplankton, for example, larger individuals may be strongly limited by size-selective preda

This book will stimulate biologists to look into some important and interesting biological problems from a new angle of approach, concerning: - life history evolution, - intraspecific competition and nic

Dynamics of Age- and Size-Structured Populations: Intraspecific Competitionwill discuss the implications of such differences in size/morphology on the intensity of competition between age classes, and show that competition between age classes can have interesting population dynamic consequences.
