2008 journal article

Estimated home ranges can misrepresent habitat relationships on patchy landscapes

ECOLOGICAL MODELLING, 216(3-4), 409–414.

By: M. Mitchell* & R. Powell n

author keywords: habitat quality; home range estimate; optimal home range; patchy landscape; resource distribution
topics (OpenAlex): Wildlife Ecology and Conservation; Genetic and phenotypic traits in livestock; Animal Behavior and Welfare Studies
TL;DR: The potential bias of including unselected, largely irrelevant patches in the field estimates of home ranges of animals can be high, particularly for home range estimators that assume uniform use of space within home range boundaries. (via Semantic Scholar)

1998 journal article

Topographical constraints and home range quality

ECOGRAPHY, 21(4), 337–341.

By: R. Powell n & M. Mitchell n

topics (OpenAlex): Wildlife Ecology and Conservation; Animal Behavior and Welfare Studies; Wildlife-Road Interactions and Conservation
TL;DR: Bears’ homo ranges had lower resource values than was optimal for their home range locations and access to resources was limited by topography', Ignoring topography may lead researchers to misunderstand the ecology and behavior of animals that live in mountainous areas.
