How key habitat features influence large terrestrial carnivore movements: waterholes and African lions in a semi-arid savanna of north-western Zimbabwe (2010, background): “…with diverse abiotic and biotic factors and may be influenced by habitat characteristics (e.g. Bélisle et al. 2001), resource abundance and distribution (Fauchald 1999), predation risk (e.g. Fortin et al. 2005; Frair et al. 2005), and other complex behavioural processes (e.g. Roshier et al. 2008).”
Habitat Selection at Multiple Scales (2009, background): “Similarly, patterns of time spent foraging or first passage times reveal the scales at which animals concentrate their search effort (Fauchald & Tveraa, 2003; Frair et al., 2005; Pinaud & Weimerskirch, 2005).”
Corridors for Conservation: Integrating Pattern and Process (2006, methodology): “Frair et al. (2005) used a similar approach to identify three types of movement behavior in wapiti and then related these behaviors to landscape conditions including wolf (Canis lupus) predation risk and cover.”
Barriers to movement: impacts of wind farms on migrating birds (2009, background): “Animals often respond to spatial heterogeneity by altering their movement patterns (Frair et al., 2005), particularly in relation to novel objects (Jander, 1975).”
Bottom‐up versus top‐down control of tree regeneration in the Białowieża Primeval Forest, Poland (2010, background): “In addition, the presence of carnivores can influence behaviour, habitat choice and spatial distribution of ungulate species (Creel et al. 2005; Fortin et al. 2005; Frair et al. 2005).”
Know Thy Enemy: Experience Affects Elk Translocation Success in Risky Landscapes (2007, methodology): “To extrapolate the mean biomass along transects to each 28.5-m cell across the landscape, we modeled herbaceous biomass as a function of Julian day, vegetation class, and elevation (Anderson et al. 2005, Frair et al. 2005).”
Factors influencing female home range sizes in elk (Cervus elaphus) in North American landscapes (2005, methodology): “The area is characterized by rolling to rugged terrain between 500 and 1500 m in elevation and is dominated by conifer forest (69.5% forested; Frair et al. 2005 ).”
Fluctuating ungulate density shapes tree recruitment in natural stands of the BiałOwieża Primeval Forest, Poland. (2010, background): “2002; Jędrzejewska & Jędrzejewski 2005); on the other hand, their presence can alter behaviour, habitat choice and spatial distribution of ungulate species (Creel et al. 2005; Fortin et al. 2005; Frair et al. 2005).”
Hunting increases vigilance levels in roe deer and modifies feeding site selection (2008, unknown): “In addition, the landscape of fear may affect behaviours other than foraging, for example, habitat selection, movements (Fortin et al. 2005; Frair et al. 2005; Winnie et al. 2006) and activity rhythms (Jeppesen 1987; Yarmoloy et al.”
A mechanistic simulation model of seed dispersal by animals (2008, background): “There have been quite a number of successful attempts to model animal movement in space (Bovet & Benhamou 1988; Turchin 1991; Zollner & Lima 1999; Byers 2001; Morales et al. 2004; Frair et al. 2005; Morales et al. 2005; Van Dyck & Baguette 2005; Vuilleumier & Metzger 2006).”
Competition, predation, and migration: Individual choice patterns of Serengeti migrants captured by hierarchical models (2014, background): “However, the role of predation in shaping mammal migrations has received relatively little attention, with the notable exception of elk in North America (Frair et al. 2005, Hebblewhite and Merrill 2007, 2009).”
