Analyzing ecological data often requires modeling the autocorrelation created by spatial and temporal processes. Many of the statistical methods used to account for autocorrelation can be viewed as regression models that include basis…

The autologistic model and related auto-models, commonly applied as autocovariate regression, offer distinct advantages for analysing spatially autocorrelated ecological data. However, comparative studies by Carl and K\"uhn (Ecol. Model.,…
