Providing baseline data for conservation–Heart rate monitoring in captive scimitar-horned oryx

Frontiers in Physiology, 2023
Heart rate biologging has been successfully used to study wildlife responses to natural and human-caused stressors (e.g., hunting, landscape of fear). Although rarely deployed to inform conservation, heart rate biologging may be particularly valuable for

Intrinsic and extrinsic factors drive ontogeny of early-life at-sea behaviour in a marine top predator [PDF]

, 2017
Young animals must learn to forage effectively to survive the transition from parental provisioning to independent feeding. Rapid development of successful foraging strategies is particularly important for capital breeders that do not receive parental ...

Western Gull Foraging Behavior as an Ecosystem State Indicator in Coastal California

Frontiers in Marine Science, 2022
With accelerating climate variability and change, novel approaches are needed to warn managers of changing ecosystem state and to identify appropriate management actions.

Increased Diurnal Activity Is Indicative of Energy Deficit in a Nocturnal Mammal, the Aardvark

Frontiers in Physiology, 2020
Shifting activity to cooler times of day buffers animals from increased heat and aridity under climate change. Conversely, when resources are limited, some nocturnal species become more diurnal, reducing energetic costs of keeping warm at night ...

Environmental drivers of population-level variation in the migratory and diving ontogeny of an Arctic top predator

Royal Society Open Science, 2022
The development of migratory strategies that enable juveniles to survive to sexual maturity is critical for species that exploit seasonal niches. For animals that forage via breath-hold diving, this requires a combination of both physiological and ...

Asset Tracking Whales—First Deployment of a Custom-Made GPS/GSM Suction Cup Tag on Migrating Humpback Whales

Journal of Marine Science and Engineering, 2021
The study of marine mammals is greatly enhanced through fine scale data on habitat use. Here we used a commonly available asset tracker Global Positioning System/Global Systems for Mobile Communication (GPS/GSM) integrated into a CATS suction cup tag to ...

Biologging Physiological and Ecological Responses to Climatic Variation: New Tools for the Climate Change Era

Frontiers in Ecology and Evolution, 2018
In this mini-review, we discuss how biologging technology can be used to detect, understand, and forecast species' responses to climate change. We review studies of phenology, thermal biology, and microhabitat selection as examples to illustrate the ...

Changing measurements or changing movements? Sampling scale and movement model identifiability across generations of biologging technology [PDF]

, 2017
Animal movement patterns contribute to our understanding of variation in breeding success and survival of individuals, and the implications for population dynamics. Over time, sensor technology for measuring movement patterns has improved. Although older

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

Sensors, 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 ...
