Research overview: circuit theory and corridor design for wide-ranging cats
OverviewCircuit theory, which models animal movement as electrical current flowing across a resistance surface, has become a standard tool for mapping connectivity for wide-ranging cats. This overview surveys…
Research overview: disease as an extinction driver in small felid populations
OverviewFor tiny, isolated felid populations, infectious disease can pose an extinction-level threat that compounds genetic and demographic vulnerabilities. This overview surveys how disease drives extinction…
Research overview: gestation length across the cat family
OverviewGestation in felids scales broadly with body size, ranging from roughly two months in small cats to around three and a half months in the largest species. This overview compiles comparative data on pr…
Species distribution models: ecological explanation and prediction across space and time
ReviewThis widely cited review synthesized the theory and practice of species distribution models (SDMs), the statistical tools that relate species occurrence to environmental predictors to map current and…
