Patrick. David and myself attended the last Conservation Council meeting on November the 24th. An obvious area of concern is the great amount of work for. Council to do and the limited number of people available to work on the issues. Some responsibility does lie with club members to help support the workings of the Council as the Canberra Bushwalking Club has been a member of the Conservation Council of the South East Region and Canberra for many years. Areas where Club members could direct their energies are: 1/ Assistance with the Kingsley Street Markets on the first Sunday of every month. This involves at most a few hours on the morning of the market helping to direct store-holders, set up tables and help with refreshments. Contact Chris Scott 477808. 2/ The urban planning working group is currently focusing on Civic's transport problems and the Murrumbidgee corridor plan. It sounds as if they could do with some more support in presenting conservation considerations to the NCDC. etc. Contact Chris Lawrence 467243(w). 3/ The forestry working group is putting a great deal of effort into the anti-woodchip struggle. This is in response to Harris-Daishowa's recent request for an extension to its woodchip licence until 2009 at the rate of 900.000 tonnes per year.

  • The Scale Transition: Scaling up Population Dynamics with Field Data
    Ecology, 87(6), 2006, pp. 1478–1488 Ó 2006 by the Ecological Society of America THE SCALE TRANSITION: SCALING UP POPULATION DYNAMICS WITH FIELD DATA 1,3 2 BRETT A. MELBOURNE AND PETER CHESSON 1Center for Population Biology, University of California, Davis, California 95616 USA 2Department of Ecology and Evolutionary Biology, University of Arizona, Tucson, Arizona 85721 USA Abstract. Applying the recent developments of scale transition theory, we demonstrate a systematic approach to the problem of scaling up local scale interactions to regional scale dynamics with field data. Dynamics on larger spatial scales differ from the predictions of local dynamics alone because of an interaction between nonlinearity in population dynamics at the local scale and spatial variation in density and environmental factors over the regional population. Our systematic approach to scaling up involves the following five steps. First, define a model for dynamics on the local spatial scale. Second, apply scale transition theory to identify key interactions between nonlinearity and spatial variation that translate local dynamics to the regional scale. Third, measure local-scale model parameters to determine nonlinearities at local scales. Fourth, measure spatial variation. Finally, combine nonlinearity and variation measures to obtain the scale transition. Using field data for the dynamics of grazers and periphyton in a freshwater stream, we show that scale transition terms greatly reduce the growth and equilibrium density of the periphyton population at the stream scale compared to rock scale populations, confirming the importance of spatial mechanisms to stream-scale dynamics. Key words: heterogeneity; nonlinear dynamics; scale; spatial ecology. INTRODUCTION 1997, 1999, Pacala and Levin 1997, Chesson 2000, A central problem in spatial ecology is predicting large- Snyder and Chesson 2003, 2004).
