Deriving spatially explicit direct and indirect interaction networks from animal movement data
Ecology and Evolution, 2023 Quantifying spatiotemporally explicit interactions within animal populations facilitates the understanding of social structure and its relationship with ecological processes. Data from animal tracking technologies (Global Positioning Systems [“GPS”]) can
