Simulation and Analysis of Animal Movement Paths using Numerus Model Builder [PDF]

, 2019
Animal movement paths are represented by point-location time series called relocation data. How well such paths can be simulated, when the rules governing movement depend on the internal state of individuals and environmental factors (both local and ...

Spatiotemporal Overlap of Mallards With Poultry Farms Is Associated With Greater Risk of Avian Influenza Wild Bird Spillover Events

Ecology and Evolution
Animal movement influences local transmission and geographic spread of pathogens. Waterfowl are known reservoirs of pathogens, including H5 goose/Guangdong lineage (H5 GsGd) highly pathogenic avian influenza (HPAI).

Detect+Track: robust and flexible software tools for improved tracking and behavioural analysis of fish

Royal Society Open Science
We introduce a novel video processing method called Detect+Track that combines a deep learning-based object detector with a template-based object agnostic tracker to significantly enhance the accuracy and robustness of animal tracking.

Trash Talking: Anthropogenic Resources Facilitate Raccoon Interactions in Urban Environments

Ecology and Evolution
Interactions between animals of the same species underpin many ecological processes, from reproduction to pathogen transmission. Habitat modification, such as urbanization, affects an animal's spatial behavior, altering interactions with both their ...

Critical Domain Problem for the Reaction–Telegraph Equation Model of Population Dynamics

Mathematics, 2018
A telegraph equation is believed to be an appropriate model of population dynamics as it accounts for the directional persistence of individual animal movement.

Evaluating wild Turkey movement ecology: An example using first‐passage time analysis

Wildlife Society Bulletin, 2014
Recent advances in animal tracking technology have increased interest in the field of animal movement ecology. Numerous methods have been developed to extract information from animal movement paths that can be used to link movement behavior to external ...
