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 ...

Mechanics of animal movement [PDF]

open access: yesCurrent Biology, 2005
The questions highlighted here cannot represent all the kinds of questions that biomechanists have asked about human and animal movement. In addition to the ones I have omitted, there must be many good questions that we have not yet thought of asking.

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 ...

Does migratory distance affect fuelling in a medium-distance passerine migrant?: results from direct and step-wise simulated magnetic displacements

open access: yesBiology Open, 2016
In birds, fat accumulation before and during migration has been shown to be endogenously controlled and tuned by, among other factors, the Earth's magnetic field.

Spatial memory and animal movement [PDF]

open access: yesEcology Letters, 2013
AbstractMemory is critical to understanding animal movement but has proven challenging to study. Advances in animal tracking technology, theoretical movement models and cognitive sciences have facilitated research in each of these fields, but also created a need for synthetic examination of the linkages between memory and animal movement. Here, we draw

Analysis and visualization of animal movement [PDF]

open access: yesBiology Letters, 2011
The interdisciplinary workshop ‘ Analysis and Visualization of Moving Objects ’ was held at the Lorentz Centre in Leiden, The Netherlands, from 27 June to 1 July 2011. It brought together international specialists from ecology, computer science and geographical information science actively involved in the ...

Daily Evolution of the Insect Biomass Spectrum in an Agricultural Landscape Accessed with Lidar

open access: yesEPJ Web of Conferences, 2016
We present measurements of atmospheric insect fauna intercepted by a static lidar transect over arable and pastoral land over one day. We observe nearly a quarter million of events which are calibrated to optical cross section.

Geographic origin and migration phenology of European red admirals (Vanessa atalanta) as revealed by stable isotopes

open access: yesMovement Ecology, 2018
Background Long-distance migration has evolved multiple times in different animal taxa. For insect migrants, the complete annual migration cycle covering several thousand kilometres, may be performed by several generations, each migrating part of the ...
