Stochasticity and determinism: how density-independent and density-dependent processes affect population variability.
A persistent debate in population ecology concerns the relative importance of environmental stochasticity and density dependence in determining variability in adult year-class strength, which contributes to future reproduction as well as potential yield in exploited populations. Apart from the stren...
