Habitat fidelity in hawksbill sea turtlesNARA Subscribed
Climate change is altering habitat suitability and driving shifts in species distributions. To understand potential responses by mobile animals, it is essential to assess levels of plasticity in habitat use, ranging from transience to long‐term fidelity. Here, we evaluate the fidelity of hawksbill sea turtles ( Eretmochelys imbricata ) to habitats used while foraging (our primary focus), migrating, and nesting. After satellite...
Body size and digestive system shape resource selection by ungulates: A cross‐taxa test of the forage maturation hypothesisNARA Subscribed
The forage maturation hypothesis (FMH) states that energy intake for ungulates is maximised when forage biomass is at intermediate levels. Nevertheless, metabolic allometry and different digestive systems suggest that resource selection should vary across ungulate species. By combining GPS relocations with remotely sensed data on forage characteristics and surface water, we quantified the effect of body size and digestive syst...
