The role of agent-based models in wildlife ecology and management
Conservation planning of critical habitats for wildlife species at risk is a priority topic that
requires the knowledge of how animals select and use their habitat, and how they respond …

Habitat loss and fragmentation affecting mammal and bird communities—The role of interspecific competition and individual space use
Fragmentation and loss of habitat are major threats to animal communities and are therefore
important to conservation. Due to the complexity of the interplay of spatial effects and …

An introduction to agent‐based models as an accessible surrogate to field‐based research and teaching
There are many barriers to fieldwork including cost, time, and physical ability. Unfortunately,
these barriers disproportionately affect minority communities and create a disparity in access …
