Biomechanics of predator–prey arms race in lion, zebra, cheetah and impala

open access: yesNature, 2018
The fastest and most manoeuvrable terrestrial animals are found in savannah habitats, where predators chase and capture running prey. Hunt outcome and success rate are critical to survival, so both predator and prey should evolve to be faster and/or more

PREDATOR: Registration of 3D Point Clouds with Low Overlap [PDF]

open access: yesComputer Vision and Pattern Recognition, 2020
We introduce PREDATOR, a model for pairwise point-cloud registration with deep attention to the overlap region. Different from previous work, our model is specifically designed to handle (also) point-cloud pairs with low overlap.

Drone Observations of Marine Life and Human–Wildlife Interactions off Sydney, Australia

open access: yesDrones, 2022
Drones have become popular with the general public for viewing and filming marine life. One amateur enthusiast platform, DroneSharkApp, films marine life in the waters off Sydney, Australia year-round and posts their observations on social media.

Using accelerometers to develop time-energy budgets of wild fur seals from captive surrogates [PDF]

open access: yesPeerJ, 2018
Background Accurate time-energy budgets summarise an animal’s energy expenditure in a given environment, and are potentially a sensitive indicator of how an animal responds to changing resources. Deriving accurate time-energy budgets requires an estimate

Anthropogenic edge effects and aging errors by hunters can affect the sustainability of lion trophy hunting

open access: yesScientific Reports, 2023
Many large predator populations are in decline globally with significant implications for ecosystem integrity and function. Understanding the drivers of their decline is required to adequately mitigate threats.

The context dependence of non-consumptive predator effects.

open access: yesEcology Letters, 2020
Non-consumptive predator effects (NCEs) are now widely recognised for their capacity to shape ecosystem structure and function. Yet, forecasting the propagation of these predator-induced trait changes through particular communities remains a challenge ...

Geographical, temporal, and individual‐based differences in the trophic ecology of female Cape fur seals

open access: yesEcology and Evolution, 2023
Information on resource use and trophic dynamics of marine predators is important for understanding their role in ecosystem functioning and predicting population‐level responses to environmental change.

A critical assessment of marine predator isoscapes within the southern Indian Ocean

open access: yesMovement Ecology, 2020
Background Precise and accurate retrospective geolocation of marine predators via their tissues’ isotopic composition relies on quality reference maps of relevant isotopic gradients (“isoscapes”).
