- Search and navigation in dynamic environments – from individual behaviors to population distributions (2008, background): “In addition, some models investigate scaling relationships between body size and perceptual ranges (Mech and Zollner 2002) or study the contextdependence of perceptual ranges (Olden et al.”
- Environmental rugosity, body size and access to food: a test of the size-grain hypothesis in tropical litter ants (2004, background): “Finally, the relationship between body size of species and habitat perception, as verified in the present analysis, also suggests that the definition of habitat for different species would depend on each species’ spatial scale of perception (Levin and Pacala 1997, Mech and Zollner 2002).”
- Body size affects the spatial scale of habitat–beetle interactions (2005, background): “perceive the environment more coarsely ( Mech and Zollner 2002 ) or because they move farther to satisfy their greater energetic requirements (Perry and Garland 2002).”
- Behavioral tradeoffs when dispersing across a patchy landscape (2005, background): “An animal’s perceptual range might be limited by its relevant senses such as vision (Yeomans 1995) or olfaction (Schooley and Wiens 2003) and it also may be a function of its body size (Mech and Zollner 2002) and Table 3.”
