Modelling the structuring of animal communities in heterogeneous landscapes : the role of individual home range formation, foraging movement, competition and habitat configuration
This thesis aims at a better mechanistic understanding of animal communities. Therefore, an allometry- and individual-based model has been developed which was used to simulate mammal and bird communities in heterogeneous landscapes, and to to better understand their response to landscape changes …

An integrative approach to testing density effects in a migratory songbird, the Prothonotary Warbler (Protonotaria citrea)
… and I estimated their song, food search movement (i.e., hops, walks, and flights), and prey attack rates in relation to density. Male behaviors varied somewhat in relation to neighbor density, particularly during specific stages. Males with more neighbors sang at a greater rate during the …

Sources And Consequences of Ecological Intraspecific Variation In The Florida Scrub Lizard (Sceloporus Woodi)
… I investigated seasonal and sexual variation in foraging behavior of S. woodi and compared microhabitat use, behavior, diet, morphology, and ectoparasite load at a pine island site to S. woodi in scrub habitats. No variation in movement patterns existed between seasons and sexes. However …
