Minimum Convex Polygon for Home Range Estimate
One of the most surprising things for me is the search terms that lead people to my website. MCP is actually the top search term. So while… Read more “Minimum Convex Polygon for Home Range Estimate”
MCP, KDE, and LoCoH
Three of the most popular methods of home range estimation right now are the minimum convex polygon (MCP), kernel density estimation (KDE), and local convex hull (LoCoH).… Read more “MCP, KDE, and LoCoH”
Local convex hull or LoCoH in R
The local convex hull method of home range estimation is a relatively recent technique. It was developed in 2004 by Getz and Wilmers. You can read the… Read more “Local convex hull or LoCoH in R”
Using R to Calculate KDE Home Ranges
Update: The code for using the adehabitatHR package is given below. Beneath the code will follow my original blog post for informative purposes. Please note, if you… Read more “Using R to Calculate KDE Home Ranges”
