Data from: Sex-biased habitat selection by American marten in the Acadian forest

Differences in spatial ecology between the sexes are generally expected
for mammalian carnivores because of physiological (e.g., sexual
dimorphism) or behavioral (e.g., uniparental care of offspring)
differences, but sex is rarely included in studies of occurrence or
occupancy. We evaluated differences in landscape-scale
occurrence, as a function of habitat amount and configuration, between
male and female American martens in the heterogeneous,
commercially-managed forests of northern Maine. Our analysis
focused on resident adults; individuals that had survived to >1
year old, dispersed, and successfully established their home range.
