An investigation of the effects of various environmental parameters on underwater foraging behaviour of the American mink, Mustela vison Schreber [PDF]

open access: yes, 1988
The aim of this study was to investigate the effects of changes in various environmental parameters on the underwater foraging behaviour of the American mink, Mustela vison. The study was conducted in an indoor pool.

Radar tracking and motion-sensitive cameras on flowers reveal the development of pollinator multi-destination routes over large spatial scales [PDF]

open access: yes, 2012
Central place foragers, such as pollinating bees, typically develop circuits (traplines) to visit multiple foraging sites in a manner that minimizes overall travel distance.

Tree species preferences for foraging site and ways in which the preferences affect the distribution, abundance and species composition of arboreal woodland avifauna [PDF]

open access: yes, 1989
The tree species preferences by six arboreal bird species and their role in structuring the bird communities in woodland were investigated in two sites in County Durham.

Cooperative Bacterial Foraging Optimization [PDF]

open access: yes, 2009
Bacterial Foraging Optimization (BFO) is a novel optimization algorithm based on the social foraging behavior of E. coli bacteria. This paper presents a variation on the original BFO algorithm, namely, the Cooperative Bacterial Foraging Optimization ...

Foraging, roosting and survival of Natterer’s bats, Myotis Nattereri, in a commercial coniferous plantation [PDF]

open access: yes, 2015
I studied Natterer's bats in Tentsmuir Forest, a 9143-hectare commercial coniferous plantation on the NE coast of Fife, Scotland that has been planted predominantly with Scots and Corsican pine.

Bacterial colony foraging optimization [PDF]

open access: yes, 2014
This paper proposes a novel bacterial colony foraging (BCF) algorithm for complex optimization problems. The proposed BCF extend original bacterial foraging algorithm to adaptive and cooperative mode by combining bacterial chemotaxis, cell-to-cell ...

The foraging ecology and feeding behaviour of the grey heron (Ardea Cinerea) in the Camargue, S. France [PDF]

open access: yes, 1990
Foraging patterns of breeding Grey Herons were studied in the Camargue. Most individual birds used several different and widely dispersed feeding sites during the season.

Attention in Urban Foraging [PDF]

open access: yesInteraction Design and Architecture(s), 2013
This position paper argues how there has to be much more to smart city learning than just wayshowing, and something better as augmented reality than covering the world with instructions. Attention has become something for many people to know better in an
