A common challenge in species conservation and management is how to incorporate
species movements into management objectives. There often is a lack of knowledge of …

In the past decade, ecologists have witnessed vast improvements in our ability to collect
animal movement data through animal-borne technology, such as through GPS or ARGOS …

Disturbance and habitat modification by humans can alter animal movement, leading to
negative impacts on fitness, survival and population viability. However, the ubiquity and …

Recent advances in animal tracking and telemetry technology have allowed the collection of
location data at an ever-increasing rate and accuracy, and these advances have been …

Kernel density estimators are widely applied to area‐related problems in ecology, from
estimating the home range of an individual to estimating the geographic range of a species …

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

Home range estimation is routine practice in ecological research. While advances in animal
tracking technology have increased our capacity to collect data to support home range …

No consensus currently exists for the methods of estimation of home range size or for
reporting home‐range analysis results. Studies currently employ a variety of disparate …

Global positioning system (GPS) technologies collect unprecedented volumes of animal
location data, providing ever greater insight into animal behaviour. Despite a certain degree …

Parametric kernel methods currently dominate the literature regarding the construction of
animal home ranges (HRs) and utilization distributions (UDs). These methods frequently fail …
