Resource landscapes explain contrasting patterns of aggregation and site fidelity by red knots at two wintering sites

Abstract Background Space use strategies by foraging animals are often considered to be species-specific. However, similarity between conspecific strategies may also result from similar resource environments. Here, we revisit classic predictions of the relationships between the resource distribution...
