Abstract

Key data on the population dynamics of Soay sheep for the period 1955-1967 will be gathered from 3 separate locations, added to the current Soay sheep data base (1985-present), and thoroughly validated and checked. Detailed, developing stochastic models for the behaviour of the Soay sheep population will be used to input data for the period, 1967-1985, for which no appropriate records exist. Models will be tested against the newly acquired 1955-1967 data. This will validate both the data and the models. The findings will be publicised and published. (Joint with grant 96/E14253.)
