Multivariate analysis of biologging data reveals the environmental determinants of diving behaviour in a marine reptile

JL Hounslow, S Fossette, EE Byrnes… - Royal Society …, 2022 - royalsocietypublishing.org
Diving behaviour of 'surfacers' such as sea snakes, cetaceans and turtles is complex and
multi-dimensional, thus may be better captured by multi-sensor biologging data. However …

Individual variation in home‐range across an ocean basin and links to habitat quality and management

GC Hays, A Rattray, T Shimada… - Journal of Applied …, 2024 - Wiley Online Library
Overgrazing may lead to management intervention (eg culling, animal relocation) to try and

Individual specialization in a migratory grazer reflects long-term diet selectivity on a foraging ground: implications for isotope-based tracking

JA Thomson, ER Whitman, MI Garcia-Rojas… - Oecologia, 2018 - Springer
Stable isotope analysis (SIA) can be a useful tool for tracking the long-distance movements
of migratory taxa. However, local-scale sources of isotopic variation, such as differences in …

Drivers of realized satellite tracking duration in marine turtles

KM Hart, JC Guzy, BJ Smith - Movement Ecology, 2021 - Springer
Background Satellite tags have revolutionized our understanding of marine animal
movements. However, tags may stop transmitting for many reasons and little research has …
