Habitat selection is a fundamental animal behavior that shapes a wide range of ecological
processes, including animal movement, nutrient transfer, trophic dynamics and population …

Home range behaviour is a common pattern of space use, having fundamental
consequences for ecological processes. However, a general mechanistic explanation is still …

Habitat‐selection analyses allow researchers to link animals to their environment via habitat‐
selection or step‐selection functions, and are commonly used to address questions related …

A resource selection function is a model of the likelihood that an available spatial unit will be
used by an animal, given its resource value. But how do we appropriately define …

1. Although the home range is a fundamental ecological concept, there is considerable
debate over how it is best measured. There is a substantial literature concerning the …

During the last decade, there has been a proliferation of statistical methods for studying
resource selection by animals. While statistical techniques are advancing at a fast pace …

Models of habitat preference are widely used to quantify animal–habitat relationships, to
describe and predict differential space use by animals, and to identify habitat that is …

Management and conservation of populations of animals requires information on where they
are, why they are there, and where else they could be. These objectives are typically …

A goal of animal movement analysis is to reveal behavioural mechanisms by which
organisms utilize complex and variable environments. Statistical analysis of movement data …

With the advent of new technologies, animal locations are being collected at ever finer
spatio-temporal scales. We review analytical methods for dealing with correlated data in the …
