Other: home range size; nearest neighbour distance
Individual space use and spatial within and between species interactions of bank voles (Myodes glareolus) and striped field mice (Apodemus agrarius). Included are home range and core area sizes, intra- and interspecific home range and core area overlaps, the number of con- and heterospecific neighbours within the home ranges and core areas, the distance to the nearest neighbour, the distance to the nearest conspecific, the distance to the nearest heterospecific and mean values of the ground cover and the maximum vegetation heights in home ranges and core areas for each tracked individual.
Methods:

transmitter 1.1g, BD-2C from Holohil Systems Ltd., Canada
antenna: GP 150 from Winkler-Spezialantennen, Annaberg, Germany
receiver: Automated receiving unit (ARU) from JDMC Corp, Illinois, US
