Spatial Analysis in Field Primatology: Applying GIS at Varying Scales explores the application of Geographic Information Systems (GIS) to understand primate behavior across diverse scales. Edited by Francine L. Dolins, this comprehensive guide delves into cutting-edge methodologies such as niche modeling, home range analysis, and agent-based simulation, emphasizing remote data collection techniques. The book is published by Cambridge University Press with an ISBN of 978-1107062306 and was released on February 18, 2021. Spanning 460 pages, it offers a blend of theoretical insights and practical applications, illustrating how researchers use GIS to address critical questions in primate ecology, from individual foraging patterns to large-scale habitat utilization. Chapters also discuss the assessment of human impacts like logging, mining, and hunting on primate habitats, along with strategies for conservation based on these analyses.
