The Normalized Difference Vegetation Index (NDVI): unforeseen successes in animal ecology (2011, background): “…(see also Table 2), with e.g. Wiegand et al. (2008) reporting that brown bears Ursus arctos selected areas with specific NDVI characteristics, or Basille et al. (2009) demonstrating that the preferred habitat of the lynx Lynx lynx includes areas of high plant productivity (as indexed by NDVI).”
Recovery of large carnivores in Europe’s modern human-dominated landscapes (2014, background): “Whereas large carnivores do not permanently occur in the areas of highest human density in Europe, they have shown an ability to recolonize areas with moderate human densities if they are allowed, and to persist in highly human-dominated landscapes and in the proximity of urban areas (14, 15) in hig”
Large carnivore expansion in Europe is associated with human population density and land cover changes (2021, background): “…with spatially explicit estimates of human population density, which can be used as a proxy of human pressure on predators and prey populations (Basille et al., 2009; Milanesi et al., 2017; Woodroffe, 2000), are now available can be used to predict habitat suitability for large carnivores at…”
Insights into wolf presence in human‐dominated landscapes: the relative role of food availability, humans and landscape attributes (2012, background): “Thus, the adaptability of wild ungulates to human activity is facilitating the occurrence, persistence and recolonization of large predators in anthropogenic areas (e.g. Ensenrink & Vogel, 2006; Basille et al., 2009; Mladenoff et al., 2009).”
