Bird habitat preference in urban environments
, 2022 We provide three data sets that were used to estimate bird habitat preference in an urban environment. The Phi-bird preferences and Logistic-bird preference data sets contain the necessary information to estimate bird habitat preference via the Phi ...

The effect of natal experience on habitat preferences
Trends in Ecology & Evolution, 2004 Several important problems in ecology, evolution and conservation biology are affected by habitat selection in dispersing animals. Experience in the natal habitat has long been considered a potential source of variation in the habitat preferences displayed when dispersers select a post-dispersal habitat.

The induction of larval resource preference in heterogeneous habitats [PDF]
Ecological Entomology, 2018 1. Animals often have to choose between multiple food sources in their habitat, and these potentially complex decisions have a large impact on their fitness. Among other factors, previous experience with an alternative resource can significantly increase subsequent preference for the resource (‘induction of preference’).

Visual adaptation and microhabitat choice in Lake Victoria cichlid fish [PDF]
Royal Society Open Science, 2019 When different genotypes choose different habitats to better match their phenotypes, genetic differentiation within a population may be promoted. Mating within those habitats may subsequently contribute to reproductive isolation.
