Resource Availability and Habitat Quality Drive Time‐Lag Effects in High‐Altitude Ungulate Distribution

open access: yesIntegrative Zoology, EarlyView.
Our analysis revealed that while climate strongly influenced species distributions, habitat change drove most observed delays in distribution responses. In terms of community ecology, dispersed communities exhibited shorter time lags than concentrated groups. Analyses of lag duration revealed a 5–6‐year distribution lag effect in high‐altitude ungulate

Efficient Masked Autoencoder for Birdsong Representation with Applications on Wild Bird Species Classification

open access: yesIntegrative Zoology, EarlyView.
Research on mosquito feeding preferences and the malaria parasites they transmit is essential for understanding the interactions between hosts, vectors, and parasites. In this study, vertebrate hosts were identified in 72 mosquitoes. Most blood meals (58.7%) came from birds, representing 25 species, while 40.0% came from mammals (13 species), and 1.3 ...

Efficient statistical inference of turning points in animal movement data

open access: yesMethods in Ecology and Evolution, EarlyView.
Abstract Recent years have seen a proliferation of high‐frequency animal movement data, often at greater than 1 Hz, allowing us to gain much greater insight into behaviour than with lower frequency data. In particular, it is becoming possible to detect the precise points at which animals are making decisions to turn, thus placing the idea that the ...

A dynamic multi‐scale occupancy model to estimate trends in habitat use in spatially and temporally complex systems

open access: yesMethods in Ecology and Evolution, EarlyView.
Abstract Species occurrence is often influenced by changes in environmental conditions at multiple spatial and temporal scales working simultaneously in a hierarchical fashion. While previous dynamic multi‐scale occupancy modelling frameworks address dynamics at multiple spatial scales, they assume both large‐scale and small‐scale units are closed ...

Addressing ecological challenges from a quantum computing perspective

open access: yesMethods in Ecology and Evolution, EarlyView.
Abstract With increased access to data and the advent of computers, the use of statistical tools and numerical simulations is becoming commonplace for ecologists. These approaches help improve our understanding of ecological phenomena and their underlying mechanisms in increasingly complex environments.

Inferring state‐dependent diversification rates using approximate Bayesian computation

open access: yesMethods in Ecology and Evolution, EarlyView.
Abstract State‐dependent speciation and extinction (SSE) models are a popular framework for quantifying whether species traits have an impact on evolutionary rates and how this shapes the variation in species richness among clades in a phylogeny.

Integrated Species Distribution Model Using Historical Data Shows Decline in a Common Semi‐Aquatic Mammal

open access: yesAnimal Conservation, EarlyView.
A diagram of the integrated species distribution model of river otter intensity of use. Three types of data (latrine detections, roadkill detections, and detection/nondetection surveys) are linked by different observation processes to the same underlying intensity of use.
