The emergence of home range patterns from individual foraging decisions

娜塔莎正在研究如何从动物的个体行为决策中出现家庭范围空间使用的模式，由他们的生活史需求驱动。她将构建一个数学框架，该框架将与谢菲尔德大学在过去20年中收集的长尾山雀数据一起制定和测试。利用这一点，她将推导出模型来描述运动在宏观尺度上从潜在的个人随机运动模型，使用统计力学的元素。

Natasha is investigating how patterns of home range space use emerge from the individual behavioural decisions of animals, driven by their life history needs. She will construct a mathematical framework which will be formulated and tested alongside data on long-tailed tits, which has been collected by the University of Sheffield over the past 20 years. Using this, she will derive models to describe movement on the macroscale from underlying individual stochastic movement models, using elements of statistical mechanics.
