Beyond spatial overlap: harnessing new technologies to resolve the complexities of predator–prey interactions
Predation risk, the probability that a prey animal will be killed by a predator, is fundamental
to theoretical and applied ecology. Predation risk varies with animal behavior and …

Analysis of animal accelerometer data using hidden Markov models
Use of accelerometers is now widespread within animal biologging as they provide a means
of measuring an animal's activity in a meaningful and quantitative way where direct …

Successful ecosystem-based management of Antarctic krill should address uncertainties in krill recruitment, behaviour and ecological adaptation
Antarctic krill, Euphausia superba, supports a valuable commercial fishery in the Southwest
Atlantic, which holds the highest krill densities and is warming rapidly. The krill catch is …
