Any references henceforth used have been appropriately acknowledge. Isabella M. Cattadori March 1999 Acknowledgement The first day in which this experience started it is still very clear in my mind. We were at the Centro di Ecologia Elpina and a man was keeling on the floor kissing a pile of papers saing: “You have a treasure !” That man was Peter, and the treasure was 30 years of data on gamebirds in Trentino. I have learnt a lot in these three years during which Peter has introduced me to three main things. First, an enthusiasm for biology and an understanding of the mechanisms in nature, I had always wanted to study biology and I can’t imagine myself doing anything else. The second big experience was the hard work of a builders mate when I learnt to dig a floor with a pneumatic drill and fit panels to the wall. My hands were sore and my back stiff after the weekends but what a great pleasure to see the changes we had made to Peters steading ! I now think I could put my name towards the “Changing rooms” programme! The third important thing I was introduced to was the myth of Van Morrison and his distinctive way to sing and more important the stochastic rhythm that provided the background to this study. So the first person I would like to thank, and it’s never enough, is Peter. He is a great person, and he knows this! but I must stop before I come too boring. There are many other people I would like to thank. First must be Annapaola, I have to admit that sometimes she drives me crazy but that is Annapaola and one can not forget her easily once you have met her. I also would like to thank Gianni Nicolini, the director of the Centro di Ecologia Alpina who gave me the opportunity to do this Ph.D. and to work with a good group of people in a nice place. Big thanks to all my other colleagues at the Centro with whom I spent most of these three years and they never stopped supporting and encouraging my work. The colleagues, their gossip, their arguments and their friendship provided a good atmosphere and I have fond memories of the many good times we spent together. Special thanks to Sandro, a great friend, how can I forget the hours spent together talking of everything and nothing, being trivial and getting cross or supporting each other during bad moments? Also, how can I ever thank Mary enough, she made me welcome in her house and she convinced me that the British cuisine is much better than an Italian expected! I also want to mention Tom who introduced me to Manchester United and the new English bands and Kitty who was so full of warmth, generosity and let me use her bathroom. All of them have been wonderful to me, a great family. Last but least I want to thank my family (well I’m Italian how can I forget about THE FAMILY?). They always joke about my work and never take it seriously but now here is a good opportunity to sit down and read this thesis!? A special warm thanks to my mother who was always worried about me, my health and my work (another quality of the mamma italiana!) and who never stopped to looking after me, even through she always had an adventorous spirit herself. Thanks again to everyone and all the many people I met during these three years, both in Italy and in Scotland. ABSTRACT This study examines the population dynamics of 5 species of closely related galliform birds in the Dolomites, north-east Italian Alps. The aim was to assess the dynamics of these populations at the edge of their European distribution and to investigate the patterns of spatial synchrony. Three main types of data sets were used in the analysis. First, the hunting statistics collected from 210 hunting areas between 1965 and 1994 for each of the 5 galliform species. Second, rock partridge count data from 29 sample areas during the period 1994 to 1998. Third, guts helminths collected from rock partridge shot between 1995 and 1998. Tetraonid populations at the edge of their southern European distribution exhibited a weak tendency to cycle. These cycles only showed significant negative autocorrelation at half the cycle period and were classified as phase-forgetting quasi-cycles contrasting with the more regular oscillations recorded in the same species in Finland. Cycles were not found in time series of black grouse Tetrao tetrix or capercaillie Tetrao urogallus. Rock partridge Alectoris graeca saxatilis exhibited a higher tendency to fluctuate. Rock partridge populations declined between 1965 and 1975 with populations in the western province declining earlier. Total winter loss and spring to summer loss of adults were the most important population parameters influencing the year to year change in numbers. There was some compensation to hunting mortality. The hypothesis that macroparasites may be of significance in destabilising partridge abundance and generating cyclic oscillations was examined by investigating the intensity of parasite infection in cyclic and non cyclic populations. Ascaridia compar and Heterakis tenuicauda were prevalent in the rock partridge populations and significantly greater in cyclic populations than non-cyclic populations. There were large variations in synchrony both within and between species and only weak negative relationships between synchrony and distance. Species in neighbouring habitats were more likely to be in synchrony than species separated by several habitats. A detailed spatial analysis on rock partridge populations found an increase in synchrony with scale from the population to meta-population level. Rock partridge clustered in two groups DRY and WET and synchrony was stronger in populations in the same habitat with populations in the dry habitat showing a higher tendency to cycle. The modelling of the long term dynamics of spatially structured populations indicated that environmental stochasticity was the main cause of synchrony although there is also some dispersal between populations and the importance of this varied between species. Population viability analysis of the grey partridge Perdix perdix in populations in Britain between 1930-1960 and the "declining" continental populations from 1970 to 1994 confirms that the UK populations prior to 1960 were more resilient than the continental populations. Even very small harvesting cannot be tolerated by the present continental populations and this may indicate that the persistence of hunting activity, although with a limited effort, has contributed to the extinction of many sub-populations and is critically threatening the remaining ones.

These structured populations are commonly termed metapopulations and their persistence in the natural environment occurs as a balance between extinction and colonisation through dispersal (Hanski & Gilpin 1991, 1997). The rate of extinction is determined by a combination of environmental stochastic perturbations and demographic stochasticity (Wiens 1997). Balancing this extinction is dispersal that plays a central role in the cohesion of populations in a fragmented landscape, and has important implication both demographically and in the maintenance of genetic diversity (Stancey et al. in Hanski & Gilpin 1997, Hedrick 1985). The metapopulation concept can be defined broadly as a series of inter-connected, structured populations. What ever the definition, the ecological theory of metapopulation has developed faster than field studies and there is now a need for empirical studies to undertake detailed investigations that can test the theory. Questions of spatial dynamics in a heterogeneous landscape, and synchrony in species-specific or non-specific populations are of fundamental importance to the conservation of single species and to the design of nature reserves and managed population.

Introduction Understanding the determinants of the aggregate saving rate is a crucial prerequisite in designing a number of policy interventions, from the design of the tax and social security system to the layout of financial markets regulation. It is therefore not surprising that the analysis of saving behavior has become one of the central issues in empirical macroeconomics (see Browning and Lusardi, 1996, and Deaton, 1992 for recent surveys).

Although the law extends to same-sex couples most of the rights of married heterosexual couples, the law preserves legal differences between heterosexual marriage and same-sex civil unions; moreover, the possibility of a partner in a same-sex couple adopting the biological children of the other partner was so controversial that it had to be deleted in order for the law to pass.

  • Researching New Religious Movements
    Researching New Religious Movements ‘The most important “first” that this book achieves is its bold questioning of the whole intellectual apparatus of the sociology of religion as it has been applied to the understanding of the new religious movements. I am confident that Elisabeth Arweck’s study will quickly become required reading in the sociology of new religious movements.’ Professor David Martin, Emeritus Professor of Sociology, London School of Economics, University of London ‘Powerful and original . it succeeds triumphantly in being at the same time an important, high-quality academic study and a book for our times.’ Professor David Marsland, Professorial Research Fellow in Sociology, University of Buckingham New religious movements such as Scientology, Jehovah’s Witnesses and the Unification Church (Moonies) are now well established in mainstream cul- tural consciousness. However, responses to these ‘cult’ groups still tend to be overwhelmingly negative, characterized by the furious reactions that they evoke from majority interests. Modern societies need to learn how to respond to such movements and how to interpret their benefits and dangers. Researching New Religious Movements provides a fresh look at the history and development of ‘anti-cult’ groups and the response of main- stream churches to these new movements. In this unique reception study, Elisabeth Arweck traces the path of scholarship of new religious move- ments, exploring the development of research in this growing field. She con- siders academic and media interventions on both sides, with special emphasis on the problems of objectivity inherent in terminologies of ‘sects’, ‘cults’, and ‘brainwashing’. Ideal for students and researchers, this much- needed book takes the debate over new religious movements to a more sophisticated level.

The research papers are published in the period 1977-2017 and cover a wide range of topics. The systematic growth in the number of scientific publications on wild boar is an indication of growing environ- mental and social concerns about the species, which is in turn a reflection of their increasing presence across Europe. The research shows that wild boar populations are increasing in most areas of Europe. For some, a growing wild boar population is a positive development, indicating better habitat conditions and the presence of an additional huntable species. Others are strongly opposed to an expanding population and cite the increasing negative impacts such as agricultural damage and road accidents. The growing populations can be explained by a multitude of variables including climate change, agricultural practices, and increasing human pressures in rural areas (leisure activities, agriculture, …).

  • Evolutionary Dynamics of Cucumber Mosaic Virus Satellite RNA During Natural Epidemics in Italy

GALLITELLI1 Dipartimento di Protezione delle Piante dalle Malattie, Universita` degli Studi and Centro di Studio del C.N.R. sui Virus e le Virosi delle Colture Mediterranee, *Centro di Studio del C.N.R. sui Mitocondri e Metabolismo energetico, Bari, Italy Received October 24, 1996; returned to author for revision November 13, 1996; accepted December 23, 1996 The evolutionary dynamics of 22 variants of cucumber mosaic virus satellite RNA (CMV satRNA) isolated in Italy during virus epidemics from 1988 to 1993 were investigated on the basis of their primary structure and biological properties. Most of the variants were amplified from total nucleic acid preparations extracted from field-infected plants, thus representing wild isolates of CMV satRNA. Eleven variants were associated with subgroup II CMV strains, 10 with subgroup I and 1 with a mixed infection by both strains. When inoculated onto tomato seedlings, the variants induced the phenotype (necrogenic or ameliorative) predicted by their nucleotide sequence. Phylogenetic relationships between the satRNA variants were determined using the stationary Markov model, a stochastic model for evolution. For each satRNA, the Markov analysis gave a good correlation between position in the phylogenetic tree and biological properties. The variants with ameliorative and necrogenic phenotypes in tomato followed two different evolutionary dynamics in nature. Tfn-satRNA, a 390-nt-long molecule, followed a third type of evolutionary dynamic far apart from that of the shorter satRNA molecules (i.e., those in the 334- to 340-nt-length class).
