Bayesian Inference for Multivariate Ornstein-Uhlenbeck Processes in Random Environments (2007)
Summary. The Ornstein-Uhlenbeck diffusion process is a model that has been used in the analysis of longitudinal data in a variety of contexts, and in its bivariate form for the modelling of animal...
Mangroves enhance the biomass of coral reef fish communities in the Caribbean (2004)
Mumby, P.J., Edwards, A.J., Arias-González, J.E., Lindeman, K.C., Blackwell, P.G., Gall, A., ...
Mangrove forests are one of the world's most threatened tropical ecosystems with global loss exceeding 35% (ref. 1). Juvenile coral reef fish often inhabit mangroves, but the importance of these...

NotCal04—Comparison/Calibration 14C Records 26–50 Cal kyr BP (2004)
Remmele, S., Reimer, R.W., Reimer, P.J., Bronk Ramsey, C., McCormac, F.G., Kromer, B., ...
The radiocarbon calibration curve IntCal04 extends back to 26 cal kyr BP. While several high-resolution records exist beyond this limit, these data sets exhibit discrepancies of up to several...
Bayesian inference for Markov processes with diffusion and discrete components (2003)
Data arising in certain radio‐tracking experiments consist of both a continuous spatial component and a discrete component related to behaviour. This leads naturally to stochastic models with...
Bayesian Analysis Of Deformed Tessellation Models (2002)
Paul Blackwell, Jesper Møller, P. G. Blackwell
We de ne a class of tessellation models based on perturbing or deforming standard tessellations such as the Voronoi tessellation. We show how distributions over this class of `deformed'...
Bayesian inference for a random tessellation process (2001)
Summary. This paper describes an inhomogeneous Poisson point process in the plane with an intensity function based on a Dirichlet (or Voronoi or Thiessen) tessellation process and a method for using...
Shapes and Sizes of Badger Territories (1998)
P. G. Blackwell, D. W. Macdonald, Oxford Ox Ps
We examine closely the models, methods and conclusions of Doncaster and Woodroffe (1993; Oikos, 66, 88-93) who argued that den or main sett sites of clans of badgers, Meles meles, are particularly...
Random Diffusion Models for Animal Movement (1997)
Models of animal movement are necessary both as unambiguous descriptions of particular movement patterns and as starting points for the interpretation of observations on location. Radio-tracking,...
Stochastic Simulation of Ants That Forage By Expectation (1997)
C. Anderson, P. G. Blackwell, C. Cannings
Stochastic simulation has been used to create an artificial colony of ants in order to study ant foraging strategies and the links between individual activity and the colony's self-organised...
A Root Anchorage Model for Shallowly Rooted Sitka spruce (1990)
BLACKWELL, P. G., RENNOLLS, K., COUTTS, M. P.
A mathematical model has been developed to complement field experiments on tree stability, and in particular to increase our understanding of root anchorage. The model has been developed by regarding...
Bayesian inference for Markov processes with diffusion and discrete components
Data arising in certain radio-tracking experiments consist of both a continuous spatial component and a discrete component related to behaviour. This leads naturally to stochastic models with a state...
