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

open access: yesFrontiers 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 ...

Emerging Network-Based Tools in Movement Ecology [PDF]

open access: yes, 2016
New technologies have vastly increased the available data on animal movement and behaviour. Consequently, new methods deciphering the spatial and temporal interactions between individuals and their environments are vital.

Persistence in diving American mink [PDF]

open access: yes, 2015
Background: American mink forage on land and in water, with aquatic prey often constituting a large proportion of their diet. Their long, thin body shape and relatively poor insulation make them vulnerable to heat loss, particularly in water, yet some ...

Behavioural Responses of a Large, Benthic Elasmobranch to Catch-and-Release Angling

open access: yesFrontiers in Marine Science, 2022
Catch-and-release angling is widespread, but the impacts of this practice for captured individuals are understudied, especially among elasmobranchs.

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

open access: yes, 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

Navigating uncertain waters: a critical review of inferring foraging behaviour from location and dive data in pinnipeds [PDF]

open access: yes, 2016
In the last thirty years, the emergence and progression of biologging technology has led to great advances in marine predator ecology. Large databases of location and dive observations from biologging devices have been compiled for an increasing number ...

Biological membranes [PDF]

open access: yesEssays in Biochemistry, 2015
Biological membranes allow life as we know it to exist. They form cells and enable separation between the inside and outside of an organism, controlling by means of their selective permeability which substances enter and leave. By allowing gradients of ions to be created across them, membranes also enable living organisms to generate energy.

European Journal of Wildlife Research / Short-term effects of tagging on activity and movement patterns of Eurasian beavers (Castor fiber) [PDF]

open access: yes, 2016
in dt. Sprache nicht verf\ufcgbarBio-logging is becoming increasingly popular amongst wildlife researchers, providing a remote way of monitoring free-ranging animals in their natural habitats. However, capturing and tagging can be stressful and may alter

Variety in responses of wintering oystercatchers Haematopus ostralegus to near‐collapse of their prey in the Exe Estuary, UK

open access: yesEcology and Evolution, 2022
Globally, habitat loss or degradation is a major threat to many species, and those with specific habitat requirements are particularly vulnerable. Many species of wading birds (Charadrii) are dependent upon intertidal sites to feed, but, as a result of ...

The First Attempt of Satellite Tracking on Occurrence and Migration of Bryde’s Whale (Balaenoptera edeni) in the Beibu Gulf

open access: yesJournal of Marine Science and Engineering, 2021
Satellite-tagging is increasingly becoming a powerful biotelemetry approach to obtain remote measurement through tracking free-living cetaceans, which can fill knowledge gaps on cetaceans and facilitate conservation management.
