Foraging on the wing for fish while migrating over changing landscapes: traveling behaviors vary with available aquatic habitat for Caspian terns

open access: yesMovement Ecology, 2022
Background Birds that forage while covering distance during migration should adjust traveling behaviors as the availability of foraging habitat changes. Particularly, the behavior of those species that depend on bodies of water to find food yet manage to

Options for modulating intra-specific competition in colonial pinnipeds: the case of harbour seals (Phoca vitulina) in the Wadden Sea [PDF]

open access: yesPeerJ, 2015
Colonial pinnipeds may be subject to substantial consumptive competition because they are large, slow-moving central place foragers. We examined possible mechanisms for reducing this competition by examining the diving behaviour of harbour seals (Phoca ...

Stochastic modelling of animal movement [PDF]

open access: yesPhilosophical Transactions of the Royal Society B: Biological Sciences, 2010
Modern animal movement modelling derives from two traditions. Lagrangian models, based on random walk behaviour, are useful for multi-step trajectories of single animals. Continuous Eulerian models describe expected behaviour, averaged over stochastic realizations, and are usefully applied to ensembles of individuals.

Design of Deployment Strategies to Monitor the Movement of Animals with Passive Electronic Devices

open access: yesSensors, 2021
Current animal monitoring systems have improved our knowledge of quantitative animal ecology. There are many electronic tracking technologies such as VHF/UHF telemetry, light-level geolocation, ARGOS satellite telemetry and GPS tracking.

Ten grams and 13,000 km on the wing – route choice in willow warblers Phylloscopus trochilus yakutensis migrating from Far East Russia to East Africa

open access: yesMovement Ecology, 2018
Background High-latitude bird migration has evolved after the last glaciation, in less than 10,000–15,000 years. Migrating songbirds rely on an endogenous migratory program, encoding timing, fueling, and routes, but it is still unknown which compass ...

Suite of simple metrics reveals common movement syndromes across vertebrate taxa [PDF]

open access: yes, 2017
ecause empirical studies of animal movement are most-often site- and species-specific, we lack understanding of the level of consistency in movement patterns across diverse taxa, as well as a framework for quantitatively classifying movement patterns. We

An integrated animal tracking technology combining a GPS tracking system with a UAV

open access: yesMethods in Ecology and Evolution, 2023
Global Position System (GPS) tags are widely used in animal tracking to address far‐ranging ecological, behavioural and conservation‐related questions.

Using accelerometer, high sample rate GPS and magnetometer data to develop a cattle movement and behaviour model [PDF]

open access: yes, 2009
The study described in this paper developed a model of animal movement, which explicitly recognised each individual as the central unit of measure. The model was developed by learning from a real dataset that measured and calculated, for individual cows ...

A new direction for differentiating animal activity based on measuring angular velocity about the yaw axis

open access: yesEcology and Evolution, 2020
The use of animal‐attached data loggers to quantify animal movement has increased in popularity and application in recent years. High‐resolution tri‐axial acceleration and magnetometry measurements have been fundamental in elucidating fine‐scale animal ...
