A glimpse into the foraging and movement behaviour of Nyctalus aviator; a complementary study by acoustic recording and GPS tracking

open access: yesRoyal Society Open Science, 2023
Species of open-space bats that are relatively large, such as bats from the genus Nyctalus, are considered as high-risk species for collisions with wind turbines (WTs).

Special Issue on Bio-Logging and Robotics

open access: yesJournal of Robotics and Mechatronics, 2021
In the studies done to date on the swarm behaviors of animals, many different observational techniques have been developed, indicating the importance of such detailed observations. The techniques of researchers aiming to capture the swarm behavior of animals, which is normally visually unobservable, have included attaching microsensors to honey bees or

First Application of 360-Degree Camera Technology to Marine Predator Bio-Logging

open access: yesFrontiers in Marine Science, 2021
Animal-borne video camera systems have long-been used to capture the fine-scale behaviors and unknown aspects of the biology of marine animals. However, their utility to serve as robust scientific tools in the greater bio-logging research community has ...

Bio-logging Data in Darwin Core: Use Cases [PDF]

open access: yesBiodiversity Information Science and Standards, 2019
Animal-borne sensor data, along with other types of sensor-based observations, provide a growing volume and proportion of documentation about biodiversity. These data differ from the traditional specimen, sampling and human observation records for which the Taxonomic Database Working Group (TDWG) originally designed the Darwin Core standard.

Validating accelerometry-derived proxies of energy expenditure using the doubly labelled water method in the smallest penguin species

open access: yesBiology Open, 2021
Understanding energy use is central to understanding an animal's physiological and behavioural ecology. However, directly measuring energy expenditure in free-ranging animals is inherently difficult.

Heart rate and cardiac response to exercise during voluntary dives in captive sea turtles (Cheloniidae)

open access: yesBiology Open, 2020
In chelonids, oxygen is primarily stored in the lungs during a dive. Therefore, management of blood oxygen transportation to peripheral tissues by cardiovascular adjustments during submergence is crucial to maximize their dive duration, and consequently,

Addressing Power Issues in Biologging: An Audio/Inertial Recorder Case Study

open access: yesSensors, 2022
In the past decades, biologging, i.e., the development and deployment of animal-borne loggers, has revolutionized ecology. Despite recent advances, power consumption and battery size however remain central issues and limiting factors, constraining the ...

Matching times of leading and following suggest cooperation through direct reciprocity during V-formation flight in ibis [PDF]

open access: yes, 2015
One conspicuous feature of several larger bird species is their annual migration in V-shaped or echelon formation. When birds are flying in these formations, energy savings can be achieved by using the aerodynamic up-wash produced by the preceding bird ...

A case for restoring unity between biotelemetry and bio-logging to enhance animal tracking research

open access: yesFACETS, 2021
Monitoring animals with electronic tags is an increasingly important tool for fundamental and applied ecological research. Based on the size of the system under study, the ability to recapture the animal, and research medium (e.g., aerial, freshwater ...

Oxygen minimum zone: An important oceanographic habitat for deep-diving northern elephant seals, Mirounga angustirostris. [PDF]

open access: yes, 2017
Little is known about the foraging behavior of top predators in the deep mesopelagic ocean. Elephant seals dive to the deep biota-poor oxygen minimum zone (OMZ) (>800 m depth) despite high diving costs in terms of energy and time, but how they ...
