Territorial Dynamics and Stable Home Range Formation for Central Place Foragers
Uncovering the mechanisms behind territory formation is a fundamental problem in behavioural ecology. The broad nature of the underlying conspecific avoidance processes are well documented across a wide range of taxa. Scent marking in particular is common to a large range of terrestrial mammals and is known to be fundamental for communication. However, despite its importance, exact quantificati...

چکیده: نسبت به کارکرد و ماهیت دیپلماسی عمومی در جهان امروز نظریه های متعددی بیان گردیده و جایگاه آن در کنار نظریه های دیگر در محافل آکادمیک و دانشگاهی بررسی و تحلیل گردیده است. نظر به اهمیت دیپلماسی عمومی و جایگاه آن در سیاست خارجی ایران این نوشتار با تمرکز بر دیپلماسی عمومی در منطقه آسیای مرکزی تهیه و تنظیم شده است. این ضرورت از آنجا ناشی می شود که اولاً مفهوم دیپلماسی عمومی در سیاست خارجی ای...
15 صفحه اولCentral Place Theory and City Size Distribution
This paper proposes a theory of city size distribution via a hierarchy approach rather than the popular random growth process. It does so by formalizing central place theory using an equilibrium entry model and specifying the conditions under which city size distribution follows a power law. Central place theory describes the way in which a hierarchical city system with different layers of citi...
متن کاملHome range size of Tengmalm’s owl during breeding in Central Europe is determined by prey abundance
Animal home ranges typically characterized by their size, shape and a given time interval can be affected by many different biotic and abiotic factors. However, despite the fact that many studies have addressed home ranges, our knowledge of the factors influencing the size of area occupied by different animals is, in many cases, still quite poor, especially among raptors. Using radio-telemetry ...
متن کاملA Geographic Information System Method for Estimating Home Range Size
\Ve developed a new technique to quantify home ranges by using coordinate-based data that were collected at srnall time intenals and entered into a Geographic Information System (GIS). We used this technique (digitized polygons [DP]) and 4 other established methods to estimate home range sizes of groups of black howler monkeys (Alorrana pigra). \Ve calculated the size of the area used by the st...
