Observing the unwatchable through acceleration logging of animal behavior
Behavior is an important mechanism of evolution and it is paid for through energy
expenditure. Nevertheless, field biologists can rarely observe animals for more than a …

Navigating through the r packages for movement
The advent of miniaturized biologging devices has provided ecologists with unprecedented
opportunities to record animal movement across scales, and led to the collection of ever …

Satellite tracking sea turtles: Opportunities and challenges to address key questions
Over 25 years ago the first satellite tracking studies of sea turtles were published. The
technology and attachment methods have now come of age with long-term tracks over a …

Automatic classification system for grazing, ruminating and resting behaviour of dairy sheep using a tri-axial accelerometer
V Giovanetti, M Decandia, G Molle, M Acciaro… - Livestock Science, 2017 - Elsevier
A device based on a tri-axial accelerometer was used to measure behavioural parameters of
dairy sheep at pasture. Short tests were performed in grazing conditions to collect …

From sensor data to animal behaviour: an oystercatcher example
Animal-borne sensors enable researchers to remotely track animals, their physiological
state and body movements. Accelerometers, for example, have been used in several studies …
