- Characterizing properties and drivers of long distance movements by elephants (Loxodonta africana) in the Gourma, Mali (2013, background): “Here, we provide an analysis focused on addressing these questions of one of the planet’s widest-ranging terrestrial movement systems; that of desert-adapted African elephants (Loxodonta africana) living in the Gourma region of Mali.”
- Elephant spatial use in wet and dry savannas of southern Africa (2009, background): “…home ranges reflect an animal’s nutritional requirements (see Schoener, 1981), and for elephants smaller ranges suggest higher quality home ranges (Wittemyer et al., 2007a), we further expected that differences in the quantity, distribution and stability of vegetation productivity as a coarse…”
