Spatial variation in foraging behaviour of a marine top predator (Phoca vitulina) determined by a large-scale satellite tagging program [PDF]

open access: yes, 2012
The work was supported by the United Kingdom Department of Trade and industry, now the Department of Energy and Climate Change (http://www. decc.gov.uk/) through its Strategic Environmental Assessment programme (http://www.offshore-sea. .uk). The funders

From steps to home ranges: How habitat disturbance influences the movement drivers of an arboreal primate

open access: yesJournal of Animal Ecology, EarlyView.
Challenging the narrative about howler monkeys' high resilience to anthropogenic changes, our multiscale analysis reveals the costs of habitat disturbance to their movement ecology. We identify thermal limitations, reduced travel efficiency, and significant spatial saturation.

Elements on the move: How ungulate migration expands Alpine biogeochemical footprints

open access: yesJournal of Animal Ecology, EarlyView.
Using a spatially explicit model parameterized with GPS telemetry, we show that migratory and resident red deer play distinct roles in nitrogen redistribution across alpine landscapes. Migrants uniquely transport nitrogen upslope and up elevation, linking ecosystem element pools and revealing how the loss of migration alters large‐scale ecosystem ...

The generalized data management and collection protocol for Conductivity-Temperature-Depth Satellite Relay Data Loggers [PDF]

open access: yes, 2015
The software routines for data sampling and processing that are implemented on-board telemetry devices (tags) called Conductivity-Temperature-Depth Satellite Relay Data Loggers (CTD-SRDLs) enable the simultaneous collection of biological and in-situ ...

Flexible unimodal density estimation in hidden Markov models

open access: yesMethods in Ecology and Evolution, EarlyView.
Abstract Hidden Markov models (HMMs) are powerful tools for modelling time‐series data with underlying state structure. However, selecting appropriate parametric forms for the state‐dependent distributions is often challenging and can lead to model misspecification.

Fault Detection Method of Luojia1-01 Satellite Attitude Control System Based on Supervised Local Linear Embedding

open access: yesIEEE Access, 2019
This paper is aimed at the telemetry data of Luojia1-01 satellite attitude control system, and carries out the research on high-dimensional data feature extraction and fault detection based on supervised local linear embedding (SLLE). Because the general

A validated 3D point‐cloud analysis workflow for the creation of seagrass canopy height models

open access: yesMethods in Ecology and Evolution, EarlyView.
Abstract Seagrasses support highly productive ecosystems in both temperate and tropical waters and provide essential ecosystem services. Despite their importance, the vertical structure of seagrasses (i.e. the canopy) remains poorly characterised at the microscale, even though it is a strong predictor of ecological processes that influence both ...

Behavior of satellite-tracked Antarctic minke whales (Balaenoptera bonaerensis) in relation to environmental factors around the western Antarctic Peninsula

open access: yesAnimal Biotelemetry, 2017
Background The Antarctic minke whale (Balaenoptera bonaerensis) is a relatively small baleen whale species and is well suited to life in the Antarctic pack ice.

Anticoagulant Rodenticides Contribute to a Decline in an Urban Carnivore

open access: yesAnimal Conservation, EarlyView.
Anticoagulant rodenticides (ARs) have been shown to negatively affect carnivores globally and are closely tied to human activity and development. We examined drivers of annual survival in bobcats persisting on a residentially developed barrier island over 16 years.
