Estimating Rules Used by Animals for Landscape Level Movements\"Mouse<\/strong>
\nAnimal movement decisions result from wildlife behavior interacting with environmental context (e.g., animal\u2019s condition, nearby microhabitat characteristics, larger landscape setting of present location) and profoundly impact critical ecological phenomena ranging from population viability through species range expansion. A better understanding of movement rules used by wildlife species in a variety of circumstances is vital to gaining insight into the mechanisms underlying threats to the conservation of many wildlife species.

Assessing Wildlife Habitat Value in Human Dominated Landscapes<\/strong>Human activity has unforeseen implications on the quality and quantity of habitat for wildlife. Management requires understanding the landscape level implications for habitat value of scenarios for human activities such as forest management and habitat restoration.

Creating and Applying Individual Based Models for Wildlife Conservation<\/strong>
\nIndividual based models are tools that can be used to integrate empirical data (e.g., based on animal movement patterns) and predict responses of wildlife species to alternative landscape patterns. However, existing simulation tools generally fail to provide meaningful insights for addressing practical management problems associated with real animal populations. A pressing need exists for simulation models that flexibly incorporate context-dependent complexity in a user-friendly format so they can be used across a wide range of species.
