Figure 5. Dispersal events as straight-lines and least-cost paths.

Figure 5

Examples of nine of the 65 radio-collared brushtail possum dispersal events used to calibrate the dispersal kernels. To allow for the effect of incorporating landscape features to be shown, both the straight-line distances associated with the uniform landscape representation (D, in Table 2) and the least-cost paths associated with the highest ranked cost-surface landscape representation (DTR, in Table 2) are shown. While the straight-line distances do not consider the landscape at all, the least-cost paths avoid both rivers and areas without tree and scrub cover.
