A guide for studying among-individual behavioral variation from movement data in the wild
Animal tracking and biologging devices record large amounts of data on individual
movement behaviors in natural environments. In these data, movement ecologists often view …

Going through the motions: incorporating movement analyses into disease research
Though epidemiology dates back to the 1700s, most mathematical representations of
epidemics still use transmission rates averaged at the population scale, especially for …

Behavioural ecology at the spatial–social interface
Spatial and social behaviour are fundamental aspects of an animal's biology, and their
social and spatial environments are indelibly linked through mutual causes and shared …
