Habitat Complexity Influences the Microhabitat Choices of Desert Beetles by Bartholomew, Aaron

“…The model predicts that prey survivorship is maximized at intermediate Sp/Py values, such that prey can fit through the spaces in a habitat, but their larger predators cannot. The model also predicts that prey survivorship increases with increasing cover (Ct/At), which interferes with predators' ability to detect prey. …”
