🚨Preprint alert! 🚨What if your study animal doesn't know the landscape yet? Standard movement models such as SSA assume it does. In our new study we let it learn instead, and put "learner" against "omniscient" head to head (1/4) doi.org/10.64898/202...

Big thanks to my co-authors Annika Felton, Wiebke Neumann and Göran Ericsson and the reviewers to get this work, which happens to be the unplanned for second chapter of my PhD, across the finish line!

With this work, we underscore the importance of considering forage parameters when assessing space use of cervids and show possible applications for spatially explicit forage abudance datasets such as the SLU Viltfoderkartor / SLU Forage Availability Maps. www.slu.se/miljoanalys/...

Across most behavioral and temporal domains, habitat selection was best explained using both categorical habitat classes and estimated forage abundance. However, when directly compared against each other, forage abundance appeared to be a much better predictor than categorical habitat classes.

We just published a short comminication in Wildlife Biology. Link: doi.org/10.1002/wlb3... Using GPS telemetry data from 54 moose we show how using continuous information on forage abundance instead of categorical habitat covariates can improve inference on habitat selection.

A great week at the #ECM9 has ended. First time in a long while talking about movement ecology.
