Availability and use of breeding habitat by the Red-legged Cormorant (Phalacrocorax gaimardi): Evidence for habitat selection
(Taylor & Francis, 2010-04)
We studied the availability and use of breeding habitat by Red-legged Cormorants (Phalacrocorax gaimardi) to identify the factors involved in habitat selection. The species nests on cliff-faces. We identified cliffs suitable ...
Differing nest-defence behaviour in urban and rural populations of breeding Burrowing Owls
(Csiro Publishing, 2016-04)
The behaviour of birds in urban habitats often differs from that of birds in surrounding natural and rural habitats, with the attenuation of fear responses to humans a primary behavioural adaptation to urban life. In ...
Location of breeding warrens as indicators of habitat use by maras (Dolichotis patagonum) in Península Valdés, Argentina
(De Gruyter, 2017-07)
We characterized the habitat use by maras (Dolichotis patagonum) on a microhabitat scale in the area surrounding the warren, assessing the conditioning effect of the warren over space use and exploitation of other resources. ...

Fine Scale Breeding Habitat Preferences of Southern Elephant Seals (Mirounga leonina) on Península Valdés
(European Association for Aquatic Mammals, 2013-08)
This study analyzed fine-scale habitat selection of southern elephant seals (Mirounga leonina) on Península Valdés, Patagonia, Argentina, during a decade of population stability. The results showed repeatability and ...
Avian responses to forest fragmentation during the breeding and non-breeding seasons
(Wiley Blackwell Publishing, Inc, 2020-10)
Forest fragmentation represents a threat to several bird species worldwide. Several factors can change across seasons (e.g. bird perception of the landscape, weather conditions, biotic interactions), which can modify the ...
Breeding success of the endemic mara Dolichotis patagonum in relation to habitat selection: Conservation implications
(Academic Press Ltd - Elsevier Science Ltd, 2007-01)
Although maras (Dolichotis patagonum) are among the most representative mammals of South America, knowledge on the ecological processes affecting their conservation is scarce. In particular, the study of habitat requirements ...
