Toward an ecological synthesis: a case for habitat selection
- D. Morris
- Biology, Medicine
- Oecologia
- 11 April 2003
Habitat selection, and its associated density and frequency-dependent evolution, has a profound influence on such vital phenomena as population regulation, species interactions, the assembly of… Expand
Habitat-dependent population regulation and community structure
- D. Morris
- Biology
- Evolutionary Ecology
- 1 July 1988
SummaryDensity-dependence provides a causal link between processes acting at different levels of ecological organization. The linkage between density-dependent habitat use, population regulation and… Expand

TLDR
TESTS OF DENSITY-DEPENDENT HABITAT SELECTION IN A PATCHY ENVIRONMENT'
- D. Morris
- Biology
- 1 February 1987
A simple regression analysis can be used to assess the response of animal density to differences in habitat quality. The same test can evaluate general predictions of habitat selection theory as well… Expand
Considering ecological dynamics in resource selection functions.
- P. McLoughlin, D. Morris, D. Fortin, E. Vander Wal, A. Contasti
- Biology, Medicine
- The Journal of animal ecology
- 2010
1. Describing distribution and abundance is requisite to exploring interactions between organisms and their environment. Recently, the resource selection function (RSF) has emerged to replace many of… Expand
Spatial scale and the cost of density-dependent habitat selection
- D. Morris
- Biology
- Evolutionary Ecology
- 1 October 1987
SummaryHabitat selection costs depend upon the scale of habitat. At the fine-grained microhabitat scale, cost is linked to optimal foraging, and habitat selection should be abandoned even though… Expand
Habitat‐dependent foraging in a classic predator–prey system: a fable from snowshoe hares
- D. Morris
- Biology
- 1 April 2005
Current research contrasting prey habitat use has documented, with virtual unanimity, habitat differences in predation risk. Relatively few studies have considered, either in theory or in practice,… Expand
Adaptation and habitat selection in the eco-evolutionary process
- D. Morris
- Biology, Medicine
- Proceedings of the Royal Society B: Biological…
- 22 August 2011
The struggle for existence occurs through the vital rates of population growth. This basic fact demonstrates the tight connection between ecology and evolution that defines the emerging field of… Expand
Density-dependent habitat selection: Testing the theory with fitness data
- D. Morris
- Biology
- Evolutionary Ecology
- 1 March 1989
SummaryAccording to density-dependent habitat selection theory, reproductive success should decline with increased density. Fitness should be similar between habitats if habitat selection follows an… Expand
Habitat matching: Alternatives and implications to populations and communities
- D. Morris
- Biology
- Evolutionary Ecology
- 1 July 1994
SummaryI evaluate habitat matching rules based on ideal distribution models of density-dependent habitat use. Recent approaches and the ideal free continuous input matching rule on which they depend,… Expand
