Tagging through the stages: technical and ecological challenges in observing life histories through biologging [PDF]
Biologging data have provided important insights into the biology of marine mammals, sea turtles, birds, fish, and some invertebrates. These techniques have primarily targeted adult organisms.

This study reanalysed electrocardiogram (ECG) data collected in a previous study on chum salmon to explore sex-specific differences in heart rate variability (HRV) and autonomic nervous system regulation during spawning.

We present a flexible workflow to determine optimal sample sizes in animal tracking studies, balancing sampling duration, interval, and number of tagged individuals. Integrated into an R package and Shiny application, it supports rigorous and cost‐effective study design to improve inferences and inform conservation, while considering logistical and ...

Abstract An understanding of habitat use and levels of active behaviour is foundational to wildlife behaviour, ecology, conservation and management. These variables are commonly measured by tracking individuals in space and time using biologging. In principle, camera‐trap data also contain information about both activity level and habitat use; however,

Within‐Night Variation in Predictor Importance Highlights Dynamic Nature of Bird Migration
Bar chart summarising median percent of gain contributed by each predictor type (atmospheric, sampling and terrestrial) for each timestep after sunset for spring (left) and fall (right) bird migration seasons. Predictor types are denoted by different colours.

The annual survival rate of adult raptors is an important parameter in population dynamics and is needed to derive measures for population stability and conservation management. Here we studied adult European honey buzzards (Pernis apivorus), a migratory

Beyond Bergmann and Allen: A Unified Framework for Thermoregulatory Morphology
ABSTRACT Context Ecogeographical rules such as Bergmann's and Allen's have long guided expectations about how organismal size and shape vary across temperature gradients. Yet these rules are typically tested independently despite sharing a common thermoregulatory basis.
