Predator abundance attenuates positive density-dependent breeding spatial dispersion in a semi-colonial bird

The spatial organisation of breeding populations can influence fitness and population dynamics, yet the spatial expression of density dependence may vary with ecological context.

The spatial organisation of breeding populations can influence fitness and population dynamics, yet the spatial expression of density dependence may vary with ecological context. We investigated whether predator abundance alters this expression in the northern lapwing (Vanellus…
