Cox, Roger G.2017-06-082017-06-081971http://hdl.handle.net/10179/11177The dynamics of an isopod (Porcellio acaber) population in waste grassland are described. Three different generations can be distinguished on the basis of size distributions. A difference in age structure and sex ratio is seen in two areas of the study region. Overall there are more females than males. A cohort of 1000 individuals can produce 6000 young in a year, but only 10% of these survive to become sexually mature. Isopods provide a significant reservoir of calcium in the environment.enThe AuthorIsopodaThesisQ112837913https://www.wikidata.org/wiki/Q112837913
