Human Recreation and Fire History Shape Landscape Connectivity for an Endangered Forest Carnivore

open access: yesAnimal Conservation, EarlyView.
Roads and trails can impede wildlife movement, but their permeability varies with human use and fire history. We combined GPS telemetry from 45 endangered southern Sierra Nevada fishers (Pekania pennanti) with smartphone‐derived human mobility data to estimate crossing probability across road and trail segments. Fishers were about 2.5 times more likely

The GPS flight recorder for homing pigeons works : design and first results [PDF]

open access: yes, 2006
This paper describes a first version of the GPS flight recorder for homing pigeons. The GPS recorder consists of a hybrid GPS board, a patch antenna 19*19 mm, a 3 V Lithium battery as power supply, a DCDC converter, a logging facility and an additional ...

The collective application of shorebird tracking data to conservation

open access: yesConservation Biology, EarlyView.
Abstract Addressing urgent conservation issues, such as the drastic declines of North American migratory birds, requires creative, evidence‐based, efficient, and collaborative approaches. The abundance of over 50% of monitored North American shorebird populations has declined by over 50% since 1980. To address these declines, we developed a partnership

Flight tracks of homing pigeons measured with GPS [PDF]

open access: yes, 2006
Flight paths of homing pigeons were measured with a newly developed recorder based on GPS. The device consists of a GPS receiver board, a logging facility, an antenna, a power supply, a DCDC converter and a casing.

Integrating migratory connectivity data into the conservation of Australian sharks and rays

open access: yesConservation Biology, EarlyView.
Abstract Understanding migratory connectivity is important for conserving highly mobile marine species facing escalating threats. Establishing baseline information on migratory connectivity is necessary for identifying species and regions requiring transboundary cooperation for their conservation.

EVALUATING ELK HABITAT INTERACTIONS WITH GPS COLLARS

open access: yes, 2008
Global positioning systems (GPS) are likely to revolutionize animal telemetry studies. GPS collars allow biologists to collect systematically scheduled data when VHF telemetry data is difficult or impossible to collect.

Forest thinning creates short‐term roosting opportunities for northern long‐eared bats in central hardwood forests

open access: yesConservation Science and Practice, EarlyView.
Reconciling timber production with the habitat requirements of forest‐dependent wildlife is a challenge for biodiversity conservation. In managed Central Hardwood Forests of the United States, female northern long‐eared bats (Myotis septentrionalis) selected tree roosts near ridgetops and management features, including recently created regeneration ...

Using step selection functions to analyse human mobility using telemetry data in infectious disease epidemiology: a case study of leptospirosis

open access: yeseLife
Background: Human movement plays a critical role in the transmission of infectious diseases, especially those with environmental drivers like leptospirosis—a zoonotic bacterial infection linked to mud and water contact.
