Associations between sleep duration, sedentary time, physical activity, and health indicators among Canadian children and youth using compositional analyses.
TL;DR: Compositional data analyses provide novel insights into collective health implications of 24-h movement behaviours and can facilitate interesting avenues for future investigations.

Predicting gray wolf landscape recolonization: logistic regression models vs. new field data
TL;DR: In this article, a predictive spatial model of gray wolf habitat suitability is proposed based on logistic regression analysis of regional landscape variables in the upper Midwest, United States, using radiotelemetry data collected on recolonizing wolves in northern Wisconsin since 1979.

Joshua J. Millspaugh,Ryan M. Nielson,Lyman L. McDonald,John M. Marzluff,Robert A. Gitzen,Chadwick D. Rittenhouse,Michael W. Hubbard,Steven L. Sheriff +7 more
TL;DR: The rationale for estimation of RSFs based on UDs, advice about computing UDs and RSFs, and their use in resource selection studies are described, as well as 3 case studies that demonstrate use of UDs inresource selection modeling.

Problems of relative growth
TL;DR: This detailed study of the different rates of growth of parts of the body relative to the body as a whole represents Sir Julian Huxley's great contribution to analytical morphology, and it is still a basis for modern investigations in morphometrics and evolutionary biology.

Experiments with Mixtures: Designs, Models and the Analysis of Mixture Data
TL;DR: In this paper, the original Mixture Problem is described and models for exploring the Entire Simplex Factor Space are presented, including matrix algebra, least squares, and the analysis of variance.
New statistical methods for allometry with application to
TL;DR: In this paper, Mosimann et al. presented new statistical methods for the study of size and shape, and used these methods to study the morphology of red-winged blackbirds, Agelaius phoeniceus breeding in Florida.

Analysis of dispersion on a sphere
TL;DR: In this article, a series of approximate tests of significance is given for hypotheses about the precision constant K and the polar vector on a sphere, where 8' is the angle between the polar and observation vectors.
