Towards a behavioral ecology of ecological landscapes
Trends in Ecology & Evolution, 1996Recent developments in landscape-level ecological modeling rest upon poorly understood behavioral phenomena. Surprisingly, these phenomena include animal movement and habitat selection, two areas with a long history of study in behavioral ecology. A major problem in applying traditional behavioral ecology to landscape-level ecological problems is that ...

Key Concepts CONCEPT 8.1 Evolution is the basis for adaptive behavior. CONCEPT 8.2 Animals make behavioral choices that enhance their energy gain and reduce their risk of becoming prey.

AbstractNew fields of inquiry rarely spring fully grown from the forehead of a single genius, and in addition, it is often difficult to decide when a related set of inquiries has coalesced sufficiently to define a field. As measured by the solicitation and publication of review articles, human behavioral ecology has recently become a self‐conscious ...

Behavioral ecology is the integrative study of how and why behavioral mechanisms and processes mediate organisms’ interactions with their biotic and abiotic environment, thereby structuring many ecological and evolutionary processes. The behavior of organisms links physiological and molecular genetic systems with the external environment of organisms ...

Abstract There are at least 17 distinctive habitats into which we can place almost all tiger beetle species from the United States and Canada, such as sand dune, ocean beach, or hardwood forest floor. Most tiger beetles are limited to a single habitat type, and only a few species, such as the Oblique-lined Tiger Beetle, occur in as many ...

Abstract In this chapter we discuss how dynamic state variable models can be applied to understand problems of human behavioral ecology. Currently some controversy exists about whether any kind of “evolutionary” argument may apply to humans, because our ecological situation is now so different from that in which we evolved (Borgerhoff ...

Human behavioral ecology may be defined as the study of the evolutionary ecology of human behavior. Its central problem is to discover the ways in which the behavior of modern humans reflects our species' history of natural selection. During the last two decades this approach has grown rapidly, involving researchers from all the major branches of ...
