Navigating novel resources: A field test of the effects of small mammal personality on dispersal of Quercus seeds by Ivy Yen, Alessio Mortelliti

“…Personality may be critical to consider in the context of novel seeds as inexperienced individuals may default to specific behavioral tendencies and foraging strategies when deciding if and how to utilize resources. In a large‐scale field experiment in central Maine (USA), we examined seed selection behavior in two species of small mammals (Peromyscus maniculatus and Myodes gapperi) for eight species of Quercus acorns—two of which are native to Maine and six of which are novel to our populations but expected to migrate northward. …”

Seasonal resource selection of a grassland bird in a dynamic landscape: Importance of a heterogeneous landscape by Sprih Harsh, Robert C. Lonsinger, Hilary R. Kauth, Andrew J. Gregory

“…We quantified landscape features within radii of 250, 500, and 1000 m (i.e., local to broader spatial scales) from the home‐range center. We also used resource selection functions to predict the home‐range placement (second order) and resource selection within home ranges (third order) of pheasants during winter, pre‐nesting, and nesting seasons. …”
