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

Habitats have substantial influence on the distribution and abundance of animals. Animals'
selective movement yields their habitat use. Animals generally are more abundant in …

Advances in tracking technology have led to an exponential increase in animal location
data, greatly enhancing our ability to address interesting questions in movement ecology …

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 …

The study of animal movement has always been a key element in ecological science,
because it is inherently linked to critical processes that scale from individuals to populations …

Ecological data often exhibit spatial pattern, which can be modeled as autocorrelation.
Conditional autoregressive (CAR) and simultaneous autoregressive (SAR) models are …

Population‐level estimates of species' distributions can reveal fundamental ecological
processes and facilitate conservation. However, these may be difficult to obtain for mobile …

Despite being widely used, habitat selection models are rarely reliable and informative
when applied across different ecosystems or over time. One possible explanation is that …

Telemetry has major potential for application to fish habitat science and management, but to
date it is underutilized in this regard. We posit this is because (1) fish telemetry projects are …
