Hunting and fishing harvest data collection: a horizon scanning exercise from the French context

open access: yesWildlife Biology, EarlyView.
Legal and societal moves increasingly lead leisure hunting and fishing practitioners to record their harvest. The total number of individuals harvested per population per year is the minimum required information to feed into demographic models and allow science‐based management. Some few schemes record more detailed data, hence allowing better‐informed

Comparing acoustic and satellite telemetry: an analysis quantifying the space use of Chelonia mydas in Bimini, Bahamas

open access: yesRoyal Society Open Science
Passive acoustic and Argos satellite telemetry are common methods for tracking marine species and are often used similarly to quantify space use. However, data-driven comparisons of these methods and their associated ecological inferences are limited. To

Predicting seasonal density patterns of California cetaceans based on habitat models

open access: yesEndangered Species Research, 2014
Temporal variability in species distribution remains a major source of uncertainty in managing protected marine species, particularly in ecosystems with significant seasonal or interannual variation, such as the California Current Ecosystem (CCE ...

A Novel Multidisciplinary Approach for Reptile Movement and Behavior Analysis

open access: yesIntegrative Zoology, EarlyView.
We present a novel multidisciplinary approach capable of advancing research on reptiles’ behavior. Our approach uses integrated tools and methods for the digitization, reconstruction, and visualization of reptiles and their behavior. We (i) record movement through tri‐axial accelerometers, video cameras, and motion capture systems; (ii) ground‐truth ...

Kemp’s ridley Lepidochelys kempii nesting abundance in Texas, USA: a novel approach using genetics to improve population census

open access: yesEndangered Species Research, 2014
Accurate estimates of the annual numbers of nesting females are critical for assessing sea turtle populations. Nesting by Kemp’s ridley Lepidochelys kempii turtles has significantly increased at Padre Island National Seashore and nearby beaches in Texas,

Updated Chorotypes of Terrestrial Vertebrates Shed New Light on Zoogeographical Regions in China

open access: yesIntegrative Zoology, EarlyView.
Chorotype represents a fundamental concept for identifying groups of species that share similar distribution patterns. However, the last comprehensive revision of animal chorotypes in China was performed more than a decade ago. Here, we update the chorotype classifications for 1040 species and propose an updated zoogeographical regionalization scheme ...
