The range of technologies currently used in biodiversity conservation is staggering, with
innovative uses often adopted from other disciplines and being trialed in the field. We …

Bird migrations are impressive behavioral phenomena, representing complex
spatiotemporal strategies to balance costs of living while maximizing fitness. The field of bird …

BACKGROUND The movement of animals makes them fascinating but difficult study
subjects. Animal movements underpin many biological phenomena, and understanding …

For vertebrates, annual cycles are organized into a series of breeding and non-breeding
periods that vary in duration and location but are inextricably linked biologically. Here, we …

We describe a new collaborative network, the Motus Wildlife Tracking System (Motus;

Light‐level geolocator tags use ambient light recordings to estimate the whereabouts of an
individual over the time it carried the device. Over the past decade, these tags have …

The study of animal movement has always been a key element in ecological science,
because it is inherently linked to critical processes that scale from individuals to populations …

Migration, broadly defined as directional movement to take advantage of spatially distributed
resources, is a dramatic behaviour and an important component of many life histories that …

There is compelling evidence that A fro‐P alaearctic (A‐P) migrant bird populations have
declined in E urope in recent decades, often to a greater degree than resident or short …

It has been suggested that birds migrate faster in spring than in autumn because of
competition for arrival order at breeding grounds and environmental factors such as …
