Using wingbeat frequency to estimate mass gain
Abstract Energy intake is a fundamental currency in ecology that is critical to reproductive success, survival and lifetime fitness. Measuring foraging success in wild animals via biologgers has been a long‐standing challenge but is essential to understanding the mechanisms underlying population dynamics and species distributions.

Abstract Elliptic Fourier analysis (EFA) is often employed in geometric morphometrics (GM), but the normalization of elliptic Fourier descriptor (EFD) has persistently posed challenges for obtaining unique and comparable results, especially in the application of outline‐based GM methods, which limits the implementation in automated analysis of numerous,

Abstract Recent advances in biologging have led to the widespread use of accelerometers, which generate high‐resolution movement data essential for understanding animal behaviour. Derived from tri‐axial accelerometry, Overall Dynamic Body Acceleration (ODBA) serves as a proxy for energy expenditure that is less invasive and more cost‐effective than ...
