Ecosystem ManagementII. PopulationCurrent Lecturec. Non-game: watchable wildlife (millions of people, non-consumptive?, most species, millions of dollars) and examples include neotropical migrants, and other5. Management Approachesa. Featured species – game or T & E species. Pros are focused on money andefforts. Cons are needs of other species. b. Maximize Species Richness (# of species) –Pros are managing too many species. Cons are sometimes non-natives included 6. Ecosystem Management - Common errors of the management approaches include: - Small scale (usually look at too small of a scale), think of systems as closed, understanding life history & ecology, oversimplification, failure to These notes represent a detailed interpretation of the professor’s lecture. GradeBuddy is best used as a supplement to your own notes, not as a substitute.evaluate management impacts due to ego, lack of funding, and afraid of results. II. Populations - Population abundance – number of individuals of a species that occupies a certain areaA. Population Characteristics - Birth or Natality Rate- number of - Fecundity – number of eggs produced per female (potential or physical ability) - Fertility – percent of female’s eggs that are fertile (actually can result in offspring)- Production – actual number of surviving offspring produced by a population- Recruitment – number of new individuals reaching breeding age in the population (pass on new genetic material)- Fitness – relative ability of an individual or population- Mortality or Death Rate – number of deaths per number of individuals over a specified time period- Dispersal – movement of individuals from one location to another - Immigration Rate - # of individual movement of a species into another region or habitat which they are not native too and temporarily settle- Emigration Rate- # of individual movement of a species into another region or habitat which they are not native to but intent to permanently settle there. - Population have an age structure - Population growth curves helps us determine how much fishing or hunting effort- Exponential Growth – introduced/recovering- Biotic Potential – max rate at which population can grow when no resources are limiting (referred to as “r”), max births (“b”) and minimum deaths (“d”). r = b –
