Flexible and practical modeling of animal telemetry data: hidden Markov models and extensions [PDF]
, 2012 We discuss hidden Markov-type models for fitting a variety of multistate random walks to wildlife movement data. Discrete-time hidden Markov models (HMMs) achieve considerable computational gains by focusing on observations that are regularly spaced in ...

Search Foraging Strategies of Migratory Raptors Under Different Environmental Conditions
Frontiers in Ecology and Evolution, 2022 Several studies have shown in different organisms how their movements can be fitted to different patterns to optimize search of food resources. According to abundance and availability of resources, different strategies will be optimal, such as Lévy and ...

Simple individual-based models effectively represent Afrotropical forest bird movement in complex landscapes [PDF]
, 2014 Reliable estimates of dispersal rates between habitat patches (i.e. functional connectivity) are critical for predicting long-term effects of habitat fragmentation on population persistence.

Long Distance Seed Dispersal by Forest Elephants
Frontiers in Ecology and Evolution, 2021 By dispersing seeds long distances, large, fruit-eating animals influence plant population spread and community dynamics. After fruit consumption, animal gut passage time and movement determine seed dispersal patterns and distances.
