How animals distribute themselves in space: energy landscapes of Antarctic avian predators
Movement Ecology, 2021 Background Energy landscapes provide an approach to the mechanistic basis of spatial ecology and decision-making in animals. This is based on the quantification of the variation in the energy costs of movements through a given environment, as well as how

The Effects of Intraspecific Variation of Crayfish Behavior on Nutrient Cycling in Aquatic Environments [PDF]
, 2020 Human activities are rapidly altering species traits at a global scale. Yet, there remains a critical need to determine whether trait variation within species affects ecosystem responses to global change. In particular, intraspecific variation in feeding

Suite of simple metrics reveals common movement syndromes across vertebrate taxa [PDF]
, 2017 ecause empirical studies of animal movement are most-often site- and species-specific, we lack understanding of the level of consistency in movement patterns across diverse taxa, as well as a framework for quantitatively classifying movement patterns. We

Roosting and foraging social structure of the endangered Indiana bat (Myotis sodalis). [PDF]
PLoS ONE, 2014 Social dynamics are an important but poorly understood aspect of bat ecology. Herein we use a combination of graph theoretic and spatial approaches to describe the roost and social network characteristics and foraging associations of an Indiana bat ...

Incorporating neurological and behavioral mechanisms of sociality into predator-prey models
Frontiers in Behavioral Neuroscience, 2023 Consumer-resource population models drive progress in predicting and understanding predation. However, they are often built by averaging the foraging outcomes of individuals to estimate per capita functional responses (functions that describe predation ...

Insight into the kinematics of blue whale surface foraging through drone observations and prey data [PDF]
PeerJ, 2020 To understand how predators optimize foraging strategies, extensive knowledge of predator behavior and prey distribution is needed. Blue whales employ an energetically demanding lunge feeding method that requires the whales to selectively feed where ...
