Abstract Spatial ecology is the study of spatial structure in populations and communities and the processes that create that structure. Disease spreads through plant populations when propagules of pathogens disperse from one plant to another. Propagules often disperse passively, moving via currents of air or water.

This chapter highlights patterns of movement by amphibians and reptiles, including the use of limited home ranges for normal daily activities, territoriality, migration, and dispersal. This study of movement patterns and the associated use of habitats by animals comprises the field of spatial ecology.

Landscape Ecology: Spatial Heterogeneity in Ecological Systems
Science, 1995Many ecological phenomena are sensitive to spatial heterogeneity and fluxes within spatial mosaics. Landscape ecology, which concerns spatial dynamics (including fluxes of organisms, materials, and energy) and the ways in which fluxes are controlled within heterogeneous matrices, has provided new ways to explore aspects of spatial heterogeneity and to ...

Spatial Correlation in Ecological Analysis
International Journal of Epidemiology, 1993This paper presents a statistical approach, originally developed for mapping disease risk, to ecological regression analysis in the presence of spatial autocorrelated extra-Poisson variation. An insight into the effect of allowing for spatial autocorrelation on the relationship between disease rates and explanatory variables is given. Examples based on

Spatial Ecologies takes a new look at the spatial turn in French cultural and critical theory since 1968. Verena Andermatt Conley examines how Henri Lefebvre, Michel de Certeau, Jean Baudrillard, Marc Augé, Paul Virilio, Bruno Latour and Etienne Balibar reconsider the experience of space in the midst of considerable political and economic turmoil ...

Spatial autocorrelation of ecological phenomena
Trends in Ecology & Evolution, 1999Ecological variables often fluctuate synchronously over wide geographical areas, a phenomenon known as spatial autocorrelation or spatial synchrony. Development of statistical approaches designed to test for spatial autocorrelation combined with the increasing accessibility of long-term, large-scale ecological datasets are now making it possible to ...

Oikos, 1995
Spatial variance of observed measures such as density is no longer viewed as a statistical annoyance. It is now treated as a biologically important quantity that changes value depending on the scale of measurement. Processes that generate spatial variance are often inferred by matching scales of maximum biological spatial variance to dominant physical ...

Socio-spatial organization and spatial ecology
2017Home ranges of males (1204 km2) and females (1510 km2) were similar. Female home range size was positively related to the dispersion of prey and generally, but not exclusively, they displayed home range fidelity. Overlap between female home ranges was extensive, although they rarely met up.

The spatial ecology of microbes
2023Tesis (Doctoral of Philosophy degree in Biological Sciences : Ecology)--Pontificia Universidad Católica de Chile, 2021 ; Guided by cell biophysics experimentation and equipped with toolsets from theoretical ecology, the aim of my thesis is to explore the ways in which spatial structure influences the dynamics and distributions of microbial cells ...

SPATIAL POINT PROCESSES, WITH APPLICATIONS TO ECOLOGY
Biometrika, 1955The term 'point processes ', referring to stochastic processes in which events occur at more or less irregular intervals and which are represented by points on the time-axis, is of comparatively recent origin, although the existence of such processes has in fact been well known for a long time.
