PREFACE Radiotransmitters provide convenient and cost-effective means of remotely monitoring the physiology, movements, resource selection, and demographics of wild animals. During the past 10 years, efficient global positioning system collars, smaller, longer lasting, and more rehable radiotransmitters, and tools such as geographic information systems have become widely available. These developments have changed the way radio-tracking data are collected and analyzed and have produced a stimulating environment for users of radiotelemetry As we grappled with the latest analytical techniques and technological advancements in our own studies, we sensed the need for a consolidated and updated synthesis of design and analytical techniques for wildlife radiotracking studies. The use of radio telemetry in wildlife studies has been the focus of several books. However, the design and analysis of radio-tracking studies are generally of secondary consideration to technological advancements. A notable exception is Analysis of Wildlife Radio-Tracking Data by Gary C. White and Robert A. Garrott published in 1990. This important book was the first attempt to consolidate the analytical techniques and computer programs available for wildlife radio-tracking studies into one reference. The purpose of this book is similar: to provide an up-to-date assessment of design and analytical techniques for wildlife radio-tracking studies. In doing so, we hope to update and refocus the concepts presented in White and Garrott (1990). This book is organized into seven sections designed to encompass research design and aspects of animal ecology that are most commonly evaluated using radio-tracking data. These sections include experimental design, equipment and technology, animal movements, resource selection, and population demographics. Each section begins with an introductory chapter that reviews xvi eng
Preface the topic and summarizes current and future directions in that subject area. Subsequent chapters within each section highlight recent analytical approaches. As a result, the book highlights historical and contemporary advancements in the design and analysis of radio-tracking studies, provides practical advice for the field biologist conducting telemetry studies, and supplies directions and ideas for future research. This book is intended for conservation and wildlife biologists, managers, and students interested in the design and analysis of wildlife radio-tracking studies. It could thus be used as a primary text for advanced undergraduate and graduate students studying the analysis of radio-tracking data and would also be appropriate as a supplemental text in courses dealing with quantitative assessment of wildlife populations. Because of the quantitative focus of the book, readers should have basic knowledge of introductory statistics, with some chapters requiring more advanced mathematical training. eng
