Article Title: Natural regeneration on seismic lines influences movement behaviour of wolves and grizzly bears

doi: 10.1371/journal.pone.0195480

Figure Lengend Snippet: Relative probability of step selection by wolves in west-central Alberta between 2003 and 2009 during the denning season in relation to distance to seismic lines (represented as an exponential decay (1-exp -0.002* Distance (m) )), seismic line vegetation height (visualised using the mean of the lower (Low), middle (Mod), and upper (High) quantiles), and landcover intersecting seismic lines (Non-forest, Mixed, Conifer). Shaded areas are 95% confidence intervals around relative predicted probabilities of step selection.

Article Snippet: For step-selection function analyses, to represent the diminishing effect of seismic lines and attributes of seismic lines on movement behaviour with increasing distance to seismic lines, we used an exponential decay function as the measure of distance from the end of each step to each seismic line segment ( eDist ; 1-exp -0.002*Distance(m) ; ).

Figure Lengend Snippet: Relative probability of step selection by wolves in west-central Alberta between 2003 and 2009 during the rendezvous season in relation to distance to seismic lines (represented as an exponential decay (1-exp -0.002* Distance (m) )) and seismic line vegetation height (visualised using the mean of the lower (Low), middle (Mod), and upper (High) quantiles). Seismic line wetness ( eWAM ) was held at the mean for prediction. Shaded areas are 95% confidence intervals around relative predicted probabilities of step selection.

Figure Lengend Snippet: Relative probability of step selection by male grizzly bears in west-central Alberta between 2005 and 2009 during fall in relation to distance to seismic lines (represented as an exponential decay (1-exp -0.002* Distance (m) )) and seismic line vegetation height (visualised using the mean of the lower (Low), middle (Mod), and upper (High) quantiles). Results are shown for the reference category of landcover intersecting seismic lines (Non-forest). Shaded areas are 95% confidence intervals around relative predicted probabilities of step selection.
