Movement 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 ...

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

Mechanics of animal movement [PDF]
Current 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.

Ecology 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 ...

Biology 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]
Ecology 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

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

Movement 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 ...

Validation of Contact Mats to Monitor Dairy Cow Contact with Stall Partitions
Animals, 2020 In indoor housing systems, repetitive contact with the stall partitions may reflect issues between the housing environment and the cow, by reducing the quality of rest and hindering ease of movement.

, 2022 Movement is a fundamental process in the natural world, and active movement in response to environmental drivers is key to animal ecology. The animal tracking revolution has led to at least two distinct challenges in the field of movement ecology. The first is how to gain ecologically meaningful insights into the proximate, mechanistic drivers of ...
