Long‐ and short‐term temporal variability in habitat selection of a top predator

open access: yesEcosphere, 2015
Considerable theory explains the importance of understanding temporal variation in ecological processes. Nevertheless, long‐term variability in habitat selection is rarely assessed or even acknowledged.

Spatiotemporal predictions of the alternative prey hypothesis: Predator habitat use during decreasing prey abundance

open access: yesEcosphere, 2023
The alternative prey hypothesis supposes that predators supported by a primary prey species will shift to consume alternative prey during a decrease in primary prey abundance.

Ocelots in the moonlight: Influence of lunar phase on habitat selection and movement of two sympatric felids.

open access: yesPLoS ONE, 2023
Various landscape and environmental factors influence animal movement and habitat selection. Lunar illumination affects nocturnal visual perception of many species and, consequently, may influence animal activity and habitat selection.

Fine‐scale foraging habitat selection by two diving central place foragers in the Northeast Atlantic

open access: yesEcology and Evolution, 2021
Habitat selection and spatial usage are important components of animal behavior influencing fitness and population dynamic. Understanding the animal–habitat relationship is crucial in ecology, particularly in developing strategies for wildlife management

Gait Analysis of Pak Biawak: A Necrobot Lizard Built using the Skeleton of an Asian Water Monitor (Varanus Salvator)

open access: yesAdvanced Robotics Research, EarlyView.
Pak Biawak, a necrobot, embodies an unusual fusion of biology and robotics. Designed to repurpose natural structures after death, it challenges conventional boundaries between nature and engineering. Its movements are precise yet unsettling, raising questions about sustainability, ethics, and the untapped potential of biointegrated machines.

Mesopredator predation risk limits northern bobwhite nesting habitat

open access: yesEcosphere, 2023
Predators can significantly limit the amount of available habitat for vulnerable prey. Encouraging spatial segregation of predators and prey through habitat management prescriptions may be a useful tool to increase productivity and abundances of prey ...
