A review of methods for the assessment of prediction errors in conservation presence/absence models
Predicting the distribution of endangered species from habitat data is frequently perceived to
be a useful technique. Models that predict the presence or absence of a species are …

Effects of road networks on bird populations
One potential contributor to the worldwide decline of bird populations is the increasing
prevalence of roads, which have several negative effects on birds and other vertebrates. We …

Physiological consequences of habitat selection
RB Huey - The American Naturalist, 1991 - journals.uchicago.edu
By determining the microclimates that an animal experiences, habitats influence an animal's
physiological capacities and ultimately its demographic and ecological performance. As a …

Roles of raptors in a changing world: from flagships to providers of key ecosystem services
Birds of prey have been, in comparison to other avian groups, an uncommon study model,
mainly due to the limitations imposed by their conservative life strategy (low population …
