Linking animal movement to site fidelity
Journal of Mathematical Biology, 2011 Site fidelity, the recurrent visit of an animal to a previously occupied area is a wide-spread behavior in the animal kingdom. The relevance of site fidelity to territoriality, successful breeding, social associations, optimal foraging and other ecological processes, demands accurate quantification. Here we generalize previous theory that connects site

Ecosphere, 2021 Ecosystems are experiencing elevated levels of disturbance, and species with narrower niches are often more vulnerable to disturbances. Niche breadth is often measured in terms of either diet or habitat use but diet and spatial use are infrequently ...

Comparison of Assertive Community Treatment Fidelity Assessment Methods: Reliability and Validity [PDF]
, 2015 Assertive community treatment is known for improving consumer outcomes, but is difficult to implement. On-site fidelity measurement can help ensure model adherence, but is costly in large systems.

Age-Dependent Dispersal and Relatedness in Tiger Sharks (Galeocerdo cuvier)
Frontiers in Marine Science, 2022 Understanding dispersal in large marine fauna is necessary for conservation, but movement patterns often vary widely by sex and life stage. In sharks, genetic studies have shown evidence of widespread male-biased dispersal, though tagging and tracking ...

Health Diplomacy the Adaptation of Global Health Interventions to Local Needs in sub-Saharan Africa and Thailand: Evaluating Findings from Project Accept (HPTN 043). [PDF]
, 2012 Study-based global health interventions, especially those that are conducted on an international or multi-site basis, frequently require site-specific adaptations in order to (1) respond to socio-cultural differences in risk determinants, (2) to make ...

Individual consistency in the localised foraging behaviour of shy albatross (Thalassarche cauta)
Ecology and Evolution, 2023 Quantifying the intra‐ and interindividual variation that exists within a population can provide meaningful insights into a population's vulnerability and response to rapid environmental change.

Chromosome segregation impacts on cell growth and division site selection in Corynebacterium glutamicum. [PDF]
, 2013 Spatial and temporal regulation of bacterial cell division is imperative for the production of viable offspring. In many rod-shaped bacteria, regulatory systems such as the Min system and nucleoid occlusion ensure the high fidelity of midcell divisome ...

Reduced fidelity in Kitaev honeycomb model
, 2010 We study the reduced fidelity and reduced fidelity susceptibility in the Kitaev honeycomb model. It is shown that the reduced fidelity susceptibility of two nearest site manifest itself a peak at the quantum phase transition point, although the one-site ...

Ground state fidelity from tensor network representations
, 2008 For any D-dimensional quantum lattice system, the fidelity between two ground state many-body wave functions is mapped onto the partition function of a D-dimensional classical statistical vertex lattice model with the same lattice geometry.
