Multi-scale selection models predict breeding habitat for two Arctic-breeding raptor species
Arctic Science, 2020 Raptors are important environmental indicators because they are apex predators and can be sensitive to disturbance. Few studies have addressed habitat preferences of tundra-nesting raptors, and those that exist have focused on fine-scale characteristics.
