The identification of bat species through the analysis of echolocation calls is possible, as long as the researcher is well aware of the features and limitations of the detector and methods used. In bat studies, field logistics frequently leads to the need of leaving t...
Coexistence of carnivores in a heterogeneous landscape: habitat selection and e...
Pereira, Pedro; Alves da Silva, António; Alves, Joana; Matos, Milena; Fonseca, CarlosUnderstanding distributional patterns and mechanisms used by species for habitat selection is crucial to adopt effective land management policies in terms of biodiversityconservation.Aheterogeneouslandscapemay allow coexistence of species. That coexistence will be dependentontheavailabilityoftheresourcesinthehabitat that has to be sufficient to fulfil their basic needs. The present study aimed to investigate habita...
