Habitat selection by two beluga whale populations in the Chukchi and Beaufort seas. [PDF]
PLoS ONE, 2017 There has been extensive sea ice loss in the Chukchi and Beaufort seas where two beluga whale (Delphinapterus leucas) populations occur between July-November.

A spatially explicit habitat selection model incorporating home range behavior [PDF]
, 2005 Understanding habitat selection is of primary interest in theoretical and applied ecology. One approach is to infer habitat selection processes from differences in population densities between habitats using methods such as isodar and isoleg analysis ...

Habitat-Selecting Life History
FishesAdaptive life histories emerge through their environmentally dependent effects on fitness. Those effects are consequences of habitat quality and the density-dependent decisions that organisms make on habitat choice. Density dependence for ideal organisms

Habitat selection of female sharp-tailed grouse in grasslands managed for livestock production.
PLoS ONE, 2020 Habitat selection links individual behavior to population abundance and dynamics, so evaluation of habitat selection is necessary for conservation and management.

Microhabitat preferences of Biomphalaria pfeifferi and Lymnaea natalensis in a natural and a man-made habitat in southeastern Tanzania. [PDF]
, 2000 Schistosoma mansoni is an important human parasitic disease which is widespread throughout Africa. As Biomphalaria pfeifferi snails act as intermediate host, knowledge of their population ecology is an essential prerequisite towards understanding disease

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

Solving the woolly mammoth conundrum: amino acid 15N-enrichment suggests a distinct forage or habitat [PDF]
, 2015 Understanding woolly mammoth ecology is key to understanding Pleistocene community dynamics and evaluating the roles of human hunting and climate change in late Quaternary megafaunal extinctions. Previous isotopic studies of mammoths’ diet and physiology

Annals of Clinical and Translational Neurology, EarlyView.ABSTRACT Objective To investigate the value of constructing models based on habitat radiomics and pathomics for predicting the risk of progression in high‐grade gliomas. Methods This study conducted a retrospective analysis of preoperative magnetic resonance (MR) images and pathological sections from 72 patients diagnosed with high‐grade gliomas (52 ...

Habitat selection by 2 species of nectarivore: habitat quality isolines [PDF]
, 1992 I present a model predicting the distribution and abundance of two species of competing nectarivore exploiting nectar in two types of flower. The model uses a submodel of resource renewal and depletion, and the principle that individuals attempt to ...
