Home Range, Time, and Body Size in Mammals
Ecology, 1986The relationship between home range area and body size of terrestrial mammals is reconsidered in light of the concept of biological time. Biological time is an internal, body—mass—dependent, time scale to which the durations (of rates) of biological events are entrained.

Effects of Corticosterone on Activity and Home-Range Size of Free-Ranging Male Lizards
Hormones and Behavior, 1994The purpose of our study was to examine whether corticosterone (B) affects the spacing behavior of free-ranging male side-blotched lizards (Uta stansburiana). Furthermore, we wanted to determine if the density, reflected in seasonal changes in population size, or behavior, as a result of hormonal manipulation, of "neighboring" males influences these ...

A Convex Hull-Based Estimator of Home-Range Size
Biometrics, 1995This paper considers the problem of estimating the home-range size of an animal from locational data, which are usually collected by use of radio telemetry, with convex hull-based estimators. It is shown that the widely used minimum convex polygon has some undesirable characteristics as an estimator, and thus should be used with caution. A method based

DISPERSAL DISTANCE OF MAMMALS IS PROPORTIONAL TO HOME RANGE SIZE
Ecology, 2002We tested the prediction that home range area and dispersal distance in mammals are related when considered independently of body size. Regression of log- transformed data demonstrated that more variance in maximum dispersal distance could be explained by home range area (74%) than could be explained by body size (50%). The relationship between maximum

Habitat richness affects home range size in a monogamous large rodent
Behavioural Processes, 2013In monogamous species, after pair formation, the main reason for ranging movements is not searching for a mate, but for other important resources e.g. food. We monitored a total of 20 radio-tagged adult, paired crested porcupines in four areas of different habitat richness. No sexual size dimorphism was assessed.

Determinants of Home Range Size for Polar Bears (Ursus maritimus)
Ecology Letters, 1999The mean home range size of female polar bears (Ursus maritimus; 125 100 km2 ± 11 800; n = 93) is substantially larger than the predicted value (514 km2) for a terrestrial carnivore of similar weight. To understand this difference, we correlated home range size and sea ice characteristics. Home range size was related to (i) the ratio of land vs.

Relation between Home Range Size and Regulation of Population Size in Microtus ochrogaster
Oikos, 1980Home range size was estimated in two non-cycling populations of Microtus ochrogaster (Wagner) in Northeastern Colorado. Home range length was linearly and negatively correlated with population densities, and positively correlated with the instantaneous rate of increase of both studied populations.
