Moving in the Anthropocene : global reductions in terrestrial mammalian movements

Marlee A. Tucker, +135 more
- 26 Jan 2018 - 
TL;DR: Using a unique GPS-tracking database of 803 individuals across 57 species, it is found that movements of mammals in areas with a comparatively high human footprint were on average one-half to one-third the extent of their movements in area with a low human footprint.
Journal ArticleDOI

What determines variation in home range size across spatiotemporal scales in a large browsing herbivore

TL;DR: The relative effects of intrinsic and extrinsic determinants of variation in home range size differed with spatiotemporal scale, providing clear evidence that home rangesize is scale dependent in this large browser.
Journal ArticleDOI

Selecting the Number of States in Hidden Markov Models: Pragmatic Solutions Illustrated Using Animal Movement

TL;DR: It is demonstrated why well-established formal procedures for model selection, such as those based on standard information criteria, tend to favor models with numbers of states that are undesirably large in situations where states shall be meaningful entities.
Journal ArticleDOI

Forage quantity, quality and depletion as scale-dependent mechanisms driving habitat selection of a large browsing herbivore.

TL;DR: Coarse-scale habitat selection by moose as a function of forage variability revealed a scale-dependent trade-off between available browse quantity and browse quality.
Journal ArticleDOI

Temperature-mediated habitat use and selection by a heat-sensitive northern ungulate

TL;DR: It is shown that ambient temperature affected fine-scale behavioural decisions of moose with consequences for forage accessibility, especially during summer, and the limiting effect of ambient temperature (cold and high) on animal behaviour is likely to increase, potentially influencing individual fitness and population dynamics.
