Figure 5From: A rule-based ad hoc method for selecting a bandwidth in kernel home-range analyses Relationships between measured parameters. Relationships between (a) auto-correlation index [8] and number of locations, (b) between percentage bias and auto-correlation index, and (c) between percentage bias and fractal index of true home range for 20 elk sampled at 7 sampling frequencies (n = 140), derived from 95% fixed-kernel analyses using h ad hoc choice of smoothing parameter. Data points for each individual elk were not independent, hence, the trend line shown is based on LOESS (locally estimated scatterplot smoothing).Back to article page
