2005 journal article

Variable intake, compensatory growth, and increased growth efficiency in fish: Models and mechanisms

ECOLOGY, 86(6), 1452–1462.

By: G. Skalski n, M. Picha n, J. Gilliam n & R. Borski n

author keywords: bioenergetics; compensatory growth; energy budget model; experiment; hybrid striped bass
TL;DR: This analysis suggests that the lower cumulative maintenance costs incurred over a time interval with low consumption followed by high consumption act in association with higher assimilation and/or conversion efficiencies, and lower overall mass-specific maintenance costs to in- crease growth efficiency in hybrid striped bass.

2003 journal article

A diffusion-based theory of organism dispersal in heterogeneous populations

AMERICAN NATURALIST, 161(3), 441–458.

By: G. Skalski n & J. Gilliam n

author keywords: diffusion; heterogeneity; variability; model; movement; dispersal
MeSH headings : Animal Migration; Animals; Diffusion; Models, Biological; Movement; Population Dynamics
TL;DR: A general theory of organism movement in heterogeneous populations that can explain the leptokurtic movement distributions commonly measured in nature and defines population heterogeneity in movement behavior as the existence of different movement states and among‐individual variability in the time individuals spend in these states.

2002 journal article

Feeding under predation hazard: Testing models of adaptive behavior with stream fish

AMERICAN NATURALIST, 160(2), 158–172.

By: G. Skalski n & J. Gilliam n

author keywords: foraging; predation; trade-off; models; fish; stream
TL;DR: This work assesses the utility of four basic optimization models of foraging behavior in stream minnows in the presence of sunfish predators, and indicates that both body size and age are probably involved in determining the value of θ, and suggests that future studies should focus on estimating and understanding this parameter.

2001 journal article

Explaining leptokurtic movement distributions: Intrapopulation variation in boldness and exploration

AMERICAN NATURALIST, 158(2), 124–135.

By: D. Fraser *, J. Gilliam*, M. Daley, A. Le & G. Skalski*

author keywords: boldness; movement; dispersal; leptokurtic; exploration; Rivulus
TL;DR: Results show that a behavioral trait, not discernible from body size or sex, contributes to dispersal and that a component of fitness of surviving “dispersers” is elevated above that of “stayers,” a fundamental assumption or prediction of many models of the evolution of dispersal through hazardous habitat.
