Efficient statistical inference of turning points in animal movement data

Methods in Ecology and Evolution
Recent years have seen a proliferation of high‐frequency animal movement data, often at greater than 1 Hz, allowing us to gain much greater insight into behaviour than with lower frequency data.

Weather Conditions Are Systematically Associated With Long‐Range Nonroutine Movements in a Large Scavenger

Ecology and Evolution
Movement data are valuable for the conservation of large soaring birds, as these move across large distances and experience a wide range of threats.

Wild Boar Proves High Tolerance to Human-Caused Disruptions: Management Implications in African Swine Fever Outbreaks

Animals
Currently, African swine fever (ASF), a highly fatal disease has become pervasive, with outbreaks recorded across European countries, leading to preventative measures to restrict wild boar (Sus scrofa L.) movement, and, therefore, keep ASF from spreading.

pyecoacc: A python package for supervised learning of behavioural modes from accelerometer data

Methods in Ecology and Evolution
Supervised learning of behavioural modes from body‐worn sensor data, especially accelerometers, has become a transformative research tool in behavioural ecology over the past years.

Active Release System for Biologging Tags

Researchers have used biologging tags with local data storage and suction cup-based attachment mechanisms to collect information on the behavior and movement of cetaceans in their natural habitats, making tag retrieval an important endeavor.

Influence of natural factors and anthropogenic stressors on sperm whale foraging effort and success at high latitudes

, 2015
Behavioural responses can reveal important fitness trade-offs and ecological traps in evolutionarily novel contexts created by anthropogenic stimuli, and are of increasing conservation concern due to possible links to population-level impacts.

Packaging for Shark Biologging Tags

This project is a biomechanics problem focused on designing an adhesive biologging tag for the dogfish shark to collect accurate kinematic and physiological data in both controlled and open marine environments.

Effect of Biologger Attachment on the Stress and Health State of the Spotted Sea Bass Lateolabrax maculatus

Journal of Marine Science and Engineering
The biologger is a widely used tool in biotelemetry for investigating marine fish. However, studies reported that the attachment of biologgers has a negative effect on the target organisms.

TagTools: Software Supporting Biologging Research

, 2021
Observing animals in obscure habitats has long posed a challenge in biology. Biologging addresses this broad problem, obtaining data about animals like their acceleration, GPS position, etc. using electronic tags.
