Life path analysis: scaling indicates priming effects of social and habitat factors on dispersal distances [PDF]
1. Movements of many animals along a life-path can be separated into repetitive ones within home ranges and transitions between home ranges. We sought relationships of social and environmental factors with initiation and distance of transition movements

The effect of relatedness and pack size on territory overlap in African wild dogs
Background Spacing patterns mediate competitive interactions between conspecifics, ultimately increasing fitness. The degree of territorial overlap between neighbouring African wild dog (Lycaon pictus) packs varies greatly, yet the role of factors ...

In addition to patch size and spatial isolation, habitat quality can also influence attractiveness of patches to dispersing individuals. Using mark recapture data from 19 populations of Chinook salmon (Oncorhynchus tshawytscha) across 23 years in the ...

A REEXAMINATION OF FACTORS INFLUENCING PHILOPATRY IN RODENTS [PDF]
The costs and benefits of philopatry (remaining at the natal nest) have been discussed in numerous papers. Nevertheless, there is still debate about the relative importance of factors that favor philopatry, which can result in the formation of social groups.

Molecular genetic diversity in populations of the stingless bee Plebeia remota: A case study
Genetic diversity is a major component of the biological diversity of an ecosystem. The survival of a population may be seriously threatened if its genetic diversity values are low.

Breeding dispersal by Ross’s geese in the Queen Maud Gulf metapopulation [PDF]
We estimated rates of breeding philopatry and complementary dispersal within the Queen Maud Gulf metapopulation of Ross’s Geese (Chen rossii) using multistate modeling of neckband observations at five breeding colonies, 1999–2003.

Habitat saturation, benefits of philopatry, relatedness, and the extent of co-operative breeding in a cichlid [PDF]
Co-operative breeding in vertebrates may emerge due to subordinates delaying dispersal when free breeding habitat is not available (‘habitat saturation' hypothesis, HS).
