Published in 2024 at "Ecology and Evolution"

DOI: 10.1002/ece3.10894

Abstract: Abstract Light detection and ranging (lidar) has emerged as a valuable tool for examining the fine‐scale characteristics of vegetation. However, lidar is rarely used to examine coastal wetland vegetation or the habitat selection of small… read more here.

Published in 2024 at "Ecology and Evolution"

DOI: 10.1002/ece3.11217

Abstract: Abstract While territoriality is one of the key mechanisms influencing carnivore space use, most studies quantify resource selection and movement in the absence of conspecific influence or territorial structure. Our analysis incorporated social information in… read more here.

Published in 2019 at "Ecology and Evolution"

DOI: 10.1002/ece3.4904

Abstract: Abstract Variation in grassland vegetation structure influences the habitat selection of insectivorous birds. This variation presents a trade‐off for insectivorous predators: Arthropod abundance increases with vegetation height and heterogeneity, but access to arthropod prey items… read more here.

Published in 2020 at "Ecology and Evolution"

DOI: 10.1002/ece3.6950

Abstract: Abstract Mapping suitable habitat is an important process in wildlife conservation planning. Species distribution reflects habitat selection processes occurring across multiple spatio‐temporal scales. Because habitat selection may be driven by different factors at different scales,… read more here.

Published in 2021 at "Ecology and Evolution"

DOI: 10.1002/ece3.6959

Abstract: Abstract There is a growing agreement that conservation needs to be proactive and pay increased attention to common species and to the threats they face. The blue sheep (Pseudois nayaur) plays a key ecological role… read more here.

Published in 2024 at "Ecology and Evolution"

DOI: 10.1002/ece3.70097

Abstract: Abstract Dispersal is a complex series of movements before an individual establishes a home range. Animals must travel and forage in unfamiliar landscapes that include anthropogenic risks such as road crossings, harvest, and urban landscapes.… read more here.

Published in 2024 at "Ecology and Evolution"

DOI: 10.1002/ece3.70346

Abstract: Abstract Habitat selection is a critical aspect of a species' ecology, requiring complex decision‐making that is both hierarchical and scale‐dependent, since factors that influence selection may be nested or unequal across scales. Elk (Cervus canadensis)… read more here.

Published in 2024 at "Ecology and Evolution"

DOI: 10.1002/ece3.70404

Abstract: ABSTRACT Habitat loss is one of the primary drivers of large felid decline. The leopard (Panthera pardus), a generalist large felid species, has the behavioural and dietary flexibility to exploit different habitat types of varying… read more here.

Published in 2023 at "Ecology and Evolution"

DOI: 10.1002/ece3.9794

Abstract: Abstract Natal habitat preference induction (NHPI) occurs when animals exhibit a preference for new habitat that is similar to that which they experienced in their natal environment, potentially leading to post‐dispersal success. While the study… read more here.
