Learning and Animal Movement

open access: yesFrontiers in Ecology and Evolution, 2021
Integrating diverse concepts from animal behavior, movement ecology, and machine learning, we develop an overview of the ecology of learning and animal movement.

Linking migration and microbiota at a major stopover site in a long-distance avian migrant

open access: yesMovement Ecology, 2022
Migration is one of the most physical and energetically demanding periods in an individual bird’s life. The composition of the bird’s gut or cloacal microbiota can temporarily change during migration, likely due to differences in diets, habitats and ...

Memory and Conformity, but Not Competition, Explain Spatial Partitioning Between Two Neighboring Fruit Bat Colonies

open access: yesFrontiers in Ecology and Evolution, 2021
Spatial partitioning between neighboring colonies is considered a widespread phenomenon in colonial species, reported mainly in marine birds. Partitioning is suspected to emerge due to various processes, such as competition, diet specialization, memory ...

A hierarchical path-segmentation movement ecology framework

open access: yesEcological Processes, 2022
This paper lays out a hierarchical, appropriate-complexity framework for conceptualizing movement-path segments at different spatiotemporal scales in a way that facilitates comparative analyses and bridges behavior and mathematical concepts.

Wind-assisted sprint migration in northern swifts

open access: yesiScience, 2021
Summary: Long-distance migration has evolved repeatedly in animals and covers substantial distances across the globe. The overall speed of migration in birds is determined by fueling rate at stopover, flight speed, power consumption during flight, and ...

A role for lakes in revealing the nature of animal movement using high dimensional telemetry systems

open access: yesMovement Ecology, 2021
Movement ecology is increasingly relying on experimental approaches and hypothesis testing to reveal how, when, where, why, and which animals move. Movement of megafauna is inherently interesting but many of the fundamental questions of movement ecology ...

Evaluating Contributions of Recent Tracking-Based Animal Movement Ecology to Conservation Management

open access: yesFrontiers in Ecology and Evolution, 2020
The use of animal-born sensors for location-based tracking and bio-logging in terrestrial systems has expanded dramatically in the past 10 years. This rapid expansion has generated new data on how animals interact with and respond to variation in their ...

DynamoVis 1.0: an exploratory data visualization software for mapping movement in relation to internal and external factors

open access: yesMovement Ecology, 2021
Background This paper introduces DynamoVis version 1.0, an open-source software developed to design, record and export custom animations and multivariate visualizations from movement data, enabling visual exploration and communication of patterns ...

Primed and cued: long-term acoustic telemetry links interannual and seasonal variations in freshwater flows to the spawning migrations of Common Snook in the Florida Everglades

open access: yesMovement Ecology, 2022
Background Spawning migrations are a widespread phenomenon among fishes, often occurring in response to environmental conditions prompting movement into reproductive habitats (migratory cues).
