A capture–recapture framework for combining biologging data with physical captures to decompose and estimate demographic rates: Simulations across life cycles and application to polar bears

open access: yesMethods in Ecology and Evolution
Estimating demographic rates of wild populations is critical to understanding their dynamics but can be challenging because large amounts of data are required, and parts of the life cycle of individuals may be unobserved. In numerous research programmes,

State‐space models and inference approaches for aquatic animal tracking with passive acoustic telemetry and biologging sensors

open access: yesMethods in Ecology and Evolution
Passive acoustic telemetry systems are widely deployed to track animals in aquatic environments. However, investments in integrative methods of data analysis have remained comparatively limited, with current workflows typically considering individual ...

Animal geolocation with convolution algorithms in Julia and R via Wahoo.jl

open access: yesMethods in Ecology and Evolution
Animal geolocation is the core of movement ecology. In aquatic ecosystems, electronic tagging and tracking technologies, such as passive acoustic telemetry systems and biologging sensors, are widely deployed. However, statistical estimation of individual

Global review of shorebird tracking data to identify research gaps and conservation priorities. [PDF]

open access: yesConserv Biol
Abstract Tracking has enabled rapid advances in knowledge of the movement behavior and habitat use of shorebirds and is thus making a growing contribution to their conservation. However, realizing the full potential that tracking holds for conservation involves understanding what has been performed on shorebirds to date and identifying regional and ...

The impact of shape and attachment position of biologging devices in Northern Bald Ibises

open access: yesAnimal Biotelemetry, 2023
Background The impact of biologging devices on the aerodynamics or hydrodynamics of animals is still poorly understood. This stands in marked contrast to the ever more extensive use of such technologies in wild-living animals.

Wireless logging of extracellular neuronal activity in the telencephalon of free-swimming salmonids

open access: yesAnimal Biotelemetry, 2021
Background Salmonids return to the river where they were born in a phenomenon known as mother-river migration. The underpinning of migration has been extensively examined, particularly regarding the behavioral correlations of external environmental cues ...

Biological information [PDF]

open access: yesTheory in Biosciences, 2020
AbstractIn computer science, we can theoretically neatly separate transmission and processing of information, hardware and software, and programs and their inputs. This is much more intricate in biology. Nevertheless, I argue that Shannon’s concept of information is useful in biology, although its application is not as straightforward as many people ...

An integrative modelling framework for passive acoustic telemetry

open access: yesMethods in Ecology and Evolution, 2023
Passive acoustic telemetry is widely used to study the movements of aquatic animals. However, a holistic, mechanistic modelling framework that permits the reconstruction of fine‐scale movements and emergent patterns of space use from detections at ...

First insights into the shortfin mako shark (Isurus oxyrinchus) fine-scale swimming behaviour

open access: yesRoyal Society Open Science, 2023
As regional endotherms, lamnid sharks can sustain high cruising speeds and perform frequent speed bursts. However, since endothermy comes with high energetic costs, lamnids may adopt different swimming strategies to manage their energy budget ...

Thinking small: Next-generation sensor networks close the size gap in vertebrate biologging.

open access: yesPLoS Biology, 2020
Recent advances in animal tracking technology have ushered in a new era in biologging. However, the considerable size of many sophisticated biologging devices restricts their application to larger animals, whereas older techniques often still represent ...
