Abstract:
Occupancy density is a dynamic measurement that reveals the relationship between the floor area and occupant count, usually in a room or building. The research presented in this paper probes further into the relationship between the physical properties of space and occupants’ activity, to expand the understanding of occupancy density. The presented outcome is an evidence-based technique for determining room and activity-specific occupancy density limits that can support the design and be integrated into the design process. In this study, occupant information, namely, positioning, is simulated

Abstract:
Occupant behavior can significantly influence the operation and performance of buildings. Many occupant-centric key performance indicators (KPIs) rely on having accurate counts of the number of occupants in a building, which is very different to how occupancy information is currently collected in the majority of buildings today. To address this gap, the authors develop a standardized methodology for the calculation of percent space utilization for buildings, which is formulated with respect to two prevalent operational data schemas: the Brick Schema and Project Haystack. The methodology is sca

Abstract:
In occupancy models, imperfect detectability of animals is usually corrected for by using temporally repeated surveys to estimate probability of detection. Substituting spatial replicates for temporal replicates could be an advantageous sampling strategy in remote Arctic regions, but may lead to serious violations of model assumptions. Using a case study of site occupancy of adfluvial young-of-year Arctic grayling (Thymallus arcticus) in Barrenland tundra streams, we assessed the reliability and efficiency of alternative sampling strategies: (i) randomly distributed versus sequential adjacent

Abstract:
Modeling habitat selection often represents single spatial scales and short time periods. However, for species that dramatically modify environments upon initial colonization, non-linear interactions change original habitat to one where habitat selection is confounded by subsequent modifications by the organism itself. The ability of beavers (Castor canadensis Kuhl, 1820) to dramatically alter habitat components over time makes them a model species for examining habitat selection spatially and temporally. This study identified habitat features selected by a relatively long-lived, colonial spec

Purpose This study aims to use a narrative-based simulation approach to explore potential implications of including or excluding a dayroom in the design of an internal medicine ward. Design/methodology/approach The approach involved: collecting data in facilities using field observations and experts’ interviews; modeling representative behavior patterns in the form of rule-based narratives that direct collaborative behaviors of virtual occupants; simulating the behavior patterns in two alternative design options, one of which includes a dayroom; and analyzing the simulation results with respec

Abstract:
AbstractInformation on the distribution and abundance of the forest elephant Loxodonta cyclotis is needed to allocate limited resources appropriately and set conservation goals for the species. However, monitoring at large scales in forest habitats is complicated, expensive and time consuming. We investigated the potential of applying interview-based occupancy analysis as a tool for the rapid assessment of the distribution and relative abundance of forest elephants in eastern Cameroon. Using single-season occupancy models, we explored the covariates that affect forest elephant occupancy and de

Abstract:
Robust assessment and monitoring programs are critical for effective conservation, yet for many taxa we fail to understand how trade-offs in sampling design affect power to detect population trends and describe spatial patterns. We tested an occupancy-based sampling approach to evaluate design considerations for detecting watershed-scale population trends associated with juvenile bull trout (Salvelinus confluentus) distributions. Electrofishing surveys were conducted across 275 stream sites from the Prairie Creek watershed, Northwest Territories, Canada. Site-level detectability of juvenile bu

Abstract:
The distribution, quality, and connectivity of instream habitat can influence adult salmon occupancy and abundance patterns and alter population dynamics. In this study, we evaluated the relationships between adult coho salmon (Oncorhynchus kisutch) occupancy and abundance with instream habitat conditions, including measures of spawning gravel, habitat complexity, and juvenile rearing habitat. We used corresponding adult salmon spawning and instream habitat data collected within coastal Oregon watersheds as part of a long-term monitoring program. We modeled two processes as a function of habit

Abstract:
Land-use change is the main driver of biodiversity loss in the Mediterranean basin. New socio-economic conditions produced a rewilding process so that cultural landscapes are being invaded by more natural habitats. We analyze the effects of landscape change on the demography and the spatial distribution of Crocidura russula in six protected areas of the western Mediterranean basin. The study was conducted in the period 2008–2020 on 19 live trapping plots representing the three main natural habitats of the area (scrubland, pinewood, and holm oak woodland). We used a multiscale approach to ensur
