Movement Ecology, 2021 Background Studies of animal movement using location data are often faced with two challenges. First, time series of animal locations are likely to arise from multiple behavioral states (e.g., directed movement, resting) that cannot be observed directly.

Using movement to inform conservation corridor design for Mojave desert tortoise
Movement Ecology, 2020 Background Preserving corridors for movement and gene flow among populations can assist in the recovery of threatened and endangered species. As human activity continues to fragment habitats, characterizing natural corridors is important in establishing ...

Temperature and microclimate refugia use influence migratory timings of a threatened grassland bird
Movement Ecology, 2023 Background Seasonal changes in resource availability are known to influence the migratory behaviour of animals, including both timing and distance. While the influence of environmental cues on migratory behaviour has been widely studied at the population

An emerging movement ecology paradigm [PDF]
Proceedings of the National Academy of Sciences, 2008 Movement of individual organisms, one of the most fundamental features of life on Earth, is a crucial component of almost any ecological and evolutionary process, including major problems associated with habitat fragmentation, climate change, biological invasions, and the spread of pests and diseases.

Spatial distribution patterns and movements of Holothuria arguinensis in the Ria Formosa (Portugal) [PDF]
, 2015 Holothurian populations are under pressure worldwide because of increasing demand for beche-de-mer, mainly for Asian consumption. Importations to this area from new temperate fishing grounds provide economic opportunities but also raise concerns ...

Visual Characterisation of Temporal Occupancy for Movement Ecology [PDF]
, 2017 Movement ecologists study aspects of animals' movement, behaviour, and the factors that might drive these. Temporal patterns of local occupancy often reveal the type of usage at a location.

Energy Landscapes Shape Animal Movement Ecology
The American Naturalist, 2013 The metabolic costs of animal movement have been studied extensively under laboratory conditions, although frequently these are a poor approximation of the costs of operating in the natural, heterogeneous environment. Construction of "energy landscapes," which relate animal locality to the cost of transport, can clarify whether, to what extent, and how

Movement Ecology, 2019 Background Multiple methods have been developed to infer behavioral states from animal movement data, but rarely has their accuracy been assessed from independent evidence, especially for location data sampled with high temporal resolution.

A milestone for movement ecology research. [PDF]
Mov Ecol, 2013 Movement characterizes our world in a fundamental and comprehensive manner, encompassing living and non-living entities that move in numerous ways. In particular, the movement of living organisms is incredibly frequent and diverse, taking a central part in many ecological and evolutionary processes that have shaped life on Earth.
