A new acoustic telemetry tag that identifies carrier mortality by monitoring activity level
Methods in Ecology and Evolution, EarlyView.Abstract We present a new acoustic telemetry tag capable of detecting whether its carrier stops moving for long enough to presume the organism has died, and of reporting the time elapsed since movement ceased. The tag uses existing environmental sensor technology together with an algorithm with user‐specifiable thresholds, and importantly, can separate
