Document Summary
Overall pattern (as wolf pop is high moose is low)- does not explain everything though. In 1981 there was an increase in canine viral infection by a wolf so nothing to do with the overall pattern. So even tho simple system where you could consider it closed system- there are other things that play a role. Complicated bird bec looking for diff things in breeding area and non breeding area. But we can use this to look at how pops change over time. So general decrease in in survival of the birds- i. e. survival probability over yrs has decreased. However in jamaica, it has high variability no clear consistent pattern as seen in. Soi- southern oscillation index- strength of linear year- how diff from avg yr is this particular yr- so larger soi the stronger the linear yr: soi matches well with survival in jamaica.
