A new method of calculating centers and areas of animal activity is presented based on the harmonic mean of an areal distribution. The center of activity is located in the area of greatest activity; in fact, more than one “center” may exist. The activity area isopleth is related directly to the frequency of occurrence of an individual within its home range. The calculation of home range allows for the heterogeneity of any habitat and is illustrated with data collected near Corvallis, Oregon, on the brush rabbit (Sylvilagus bachmani.)
Dixon et al. (1980) studied this question.
