- W4232732403 abstract "Mortality is one of the major families of ecological processes that control the pattern of population dynamics. Individual mortality processes correspond to various immediate causes of death (e.g., predator or parasite species) and to stages of organism development which affect the probability of death. Each mortality process is characterized by its rate which equals the instantaneous probability of death or proportion of organisms that die during specific time or stage in their development. Mortality rate depends on environmental factors, for example, density of predators or weather. There is a many-to-many relationship between mortality processes and factors affecting their rates; thus, it is improper to associate mortality process with any single factor. Density dependence of mortality processes affects their role in stabilization of population numbers. The relative importance of mortality processes in population dynamics can be inferred from the key-factor analysis which relates changes in the rate of a specific mortality process with the overall mortality through generation. However, this analysis is not sufficient for determining the causative role of mortality in shaping the pattern of population change. This task requires either intervention experiments (e.g., introduced mortality processes) or their simulation with validated mathematical models. In particular, M-stability is a measure of resistance in the average population density to decline after introduction of additional mortality." @default.
