Habitat loss and degradation, overexploitation, climate change and the spread of invasive
species are drastically depleting the Earth's biological diversity, leading to detrimental …

In the past decade, ecologists have witnessed vast improvements in our ability to collect
animal movement data through animal-borne technology, such as through GPS or ARGOS …

Ungulate migrations are assumed to stem from learning and cultural transmission of
information regarding seasonal distribution of forage, but this hypothesis has not been …

New satellite remote sensing and machine learning techniques offer untapped possibilities
to monitor global biodiversity with unprecedented speed and precision. These efficiencies …

Bayesian modeling has become an indispensable tool for ecological research because it is
uniquely suited to deal with complexity in a statistically coherent way. This textbook provides …

There has been a recent surge of interest in remote sensing and its use in ecology and
conservation but this is the first book to focus explicitly on the NDVI (Normalised Difference …

Abstract The Green Wave Hypothesis posits that herbivore migration manifests in response
to waves of spring green‐up (ie green‐wave surfing). Nonetheless, empirical support for the …

This review highlights the latest developments associated with the use of the Normalized
Difference Vegetation Index (NDVI) in ecology. Over the last decade, the NDVI has proven …

The forage-maturation hypothesis (FMH) states that herbivores migrate along a
phenological gradient of plant development in order to maximize energy intake. Despite …

While the mechanistic links between animal movement and population dynamics are
ecologically obvious, it is much less clear when knowledge of animal movement is a …
