Quantifying consistent individual differences in habitat selection. Leclerc, M., Vander Wal, E., Zedrosser, A., Swenson, J., E., Kindberg, J., & Pelletier, F. Oecologia, 180(3):697-705, 3, 2016.
Website doi abstract bibtex Habitat selection is a fundamental behaviour that links individuals to the resources required for survival and reproduction. Although natural selection acts on an individual’s phenotype, research on habitat selection often pools inter-individual patterns to provide inferences on the population scale. Here, we expanded a traditional approach of quantifying habitat selection at the individual level to explore the potential for consistent individual differences of habitat selection. We used random coefficients in resource selection functions (RSFs) and repeatability estimates to test for variability in habitat selection. We applied our method to a detailed dataset of GPS relocations of brown bears (Ursus arctos) taken over a period of 6 years, and assessed whether they displayed repeatable individual differences in habitat selection toward two habitat types: bogs and recent timber-harvest cut blocks. In our analyses, we controlled for the availability of habitat, i.e. the functional response in habitat selection. Repeatability estimates of habitat selection toward bogs and cut blocks were 0.304 and 0.420, respectively. Therefore, 30.4 and 42.0 % of the population-scale habitat selection variability for bogs and cut blocks, respectively, was due to differences among individuals, suggesting that consistent individual variation in habitat selection exists in brown bears. Using simulations, we posit that repeatability values of habitat selection are not related to the value and significance of β estimates in RSFs. Although individual differences in habitat selection could be the results of non-exclusive factors, our results illustrate the evolutionary potential of habitat selection.

In our analyses, we controlled for the availability of habitat, i.e. the functional response in habitat selection. Repeatability estimates of habitat selection toward bogs and cut blocks were 0.304 and 0.420, respectively. Therefore, 30.4 and 42.0 % of the population-scale habitat selection variability for bogs and cut blocks, respectively, was due to differences among individuals, suggesting that consistent individual variation in habitat selection exists in brown bears. Using simulations, we posit that repeatability values of habitat selection are not related to the value and significance of β estimates in RSFs. Although individual differences in habitat selection could be the results of non-exclusive factors, our results illustrate the evolutionary potential of habitat selection.},\n bibtype = {article},\n author = {Leclerc, Martin and Vander Wal, Eric and Zedrosser, Andreas and Swenson, Jon E. and Kindberg, Jonas and Pelletier, Fanie},\n doi = {10.1007/s00442-015-3500-6},\n journal = {Oecologia},\n number = {3}\n}","author_short":["Leclerc, M.","Vander Wal, E.","Zedrosser, A.","Swenson, J., E.","Kindberg, J.","Pelletier, F."],"urls":{"Website":"http://link.springer.com/10.1007/s00442-015-3500-6"},"biburl":"https://bibbase.org/service/mendeley/22e419ab-7898-32a2-a0e2-263b41aa7868","bibbaseid":"leclerc-vanderwal-zedrosser-swenson-kindberg-pelletier-quantifyingconsistentindividualdifferencesinhabitatselection-2016","role":"author","keyword":["Functional response","Personality","Repeatability","Ursus arctos"],"metadata":{"authorlinks":{"pelletier, f":"https://bibbase.org/service/mendeley/22e419ab-7898-32a2-a0e2-263b41aa7868"}},"downloads":0},"bibtype":"article","creationDate":"2020-01-10T20:53:47.735Z","downloads":0,"keywords":["functional response","personality","repeatability","ursus arctos"],"search_terms":["quantifying","consistent","individual","differences","habitat","selection","leclerc","vander wal","zedrosser","swenson","kindberg","pelletier"],"title":"Quantifying consistent individual differences in habitat selection","year":2016,"biburl":"https://bibbase.org/service/mendeley/22e419ab-7898-32a2-a0e2-263b41aa7868","dataSources":["A2C2sda92dCqCwiY3","ya2CyA73rpZseyrZ8","2252seNhipfTmjEBQ"]}
