Martinig, April Robin, Desrochers, André , Jaeger, Jochen
Paper presented at the 100th Annual Meeting of the Ecological Society of America in 2015. BACKGROUND/QUESTION/METHODS: While many studies have looked at how large mammals respond to road mitigation measures, few studies have examined the effects on smaller mammals or taken a multispecies...

The persistence of forest-dependent species in fragmented landscapes is fundamentally linked to the movement of individuals among subpopulations. The paths taken by dispersing individuals can be considered a series of steps built from individual route choices. Despite the importance of these...

Roads are a prevalent, ever-increasing form of human disturbance on the landscape. In many places in western North America, energy development has brought human and road disturbance into seasonal winter range areas for migratory elk. In this population, I studied individual habitat selection...

Predicting local and nonlocal effects of resources on animal space use using a mechanistic step-selection function.

Schaefer, J., Bastille-Rousseau, G., Murray, D., Lewis, M.A., Potts, J.R.
Predicting space use patterns of animals from their interactions with the environment is fundamental for understanding the effect of habitat changes on ecosystem functioning. Recent attempts to address this problem have sought to unify resource selection analysis, where animal space use is...

This paper studies generalized linear mixed models (GLMMs) for the analysis of geographic and temporal variability of disease rates. This class of models adopts spatially correlated random effects and random temporal components. Spatio-temporal models that use conditional autoregressive smoothing...

Spatio-temporal modelling using B-spline for disease mapping: analysis of childhood cancer trends
Download2011
Torabi, Mahmoud, Rosychuk, Rhonda J.
To analyze childhood cancer diagnoses in the province of Alberta, Canada during 1983-2004, we construct a generalized linear mixed model for the analysis of geographic and temporal variability of cancer rates. In this model, spatially correlated random e®ects and temporal components are adopted....

Timely, accurate predictions of potential influenza epidemics are essential for healthcare providers and policy makers as the epidemics can result in heavy demands for health services. Current statistical modeling of surveillance data has limited prediction abilities and often fails to respond...
