This investigation addresses the dynamics of recruitment-                       subsidized populations, i.e. populations in which the addition of               new individuals is largely or completely uncoupled from local                   reproduction.  This includes local populations of benthic                       organisms with planktonic larvae and species (many marine fish)                 in which stochastic variation renders stock-recruitment                         relations, if any, undetectable. The demography of such                         populations is most appropriately modelled by writing recruitment               as a external "subsidy".  The dynamics of the population are                    determined by the recruitment signal filtered through the post-                 recruitment life history. Dr. Caswell will investigate four                     models (density-independent demographic models, density-dependent               demographic models, metapopulation models for coupled                           subpopulations, and multi-species community models) for                         subsidized populations. These models will provide fundamental                   theoretical insight into the dynamics of subsidized populations.                The first two will also provide tools for empirical demographic                 analysis of such populations.
