Movement responses to environment: fast inference of variation among southern elephant seals with a mixed effects model
Like many species, movement patterns of southern elephant seals (Mirounga leonina) are
being influenced by long‐term environmental change. These seals migrate up to 4,000 km …

Multi-scale modeling of animal movement and general behavior data using hidden Markov models with hierarchical structures
Abstract Hidden Markov models (HMMs) are commonly used to model animal movement
data and infer aspects of animal behavior. An HMM assumes that each data point from a …
