Beyond resource selection: emergent spatio-temporal distributions from animal movements and stigmergent interactions
Download2022-01-01
Jonathan R. Potts, Valeria Giunta, Mark A. Lewis
A principal concern of ecological research is to unveil the causes behind observed spatiotemporal distributions of species. A key tactic is to correlate observed locations with environmental features, in the form of resource selection functions or other correlative species distribution models. In...

Detecting seasonal episodic-like spatiotemporal memory patterns using animal movement modelling
Download2021-01-01
Peter R. Thompson, Andrew E. Derocher, Mark A. Edwards, Mark A. Lewis
Spatial memory plays a role in the way animals perceive their environments, resulting in memory-informed movement patterns that are observable to ecologists. Developing mathematical techniques to understand how animals use memory in their environments allows for an increased understanding of...

Robustness of movement models can models bridge the gap between temporal scales of data sets and behavioural processes
Download2015-01-01
Ulrike E. Schla¨gel, Mark A. Lewis
Discrete-time random walks and their extensions are common tools for analyzing animal movement data. In these analyses, resolution of temporal discretization is a critical feature. Ideally, a model both mirrors the relevant temporal scale of the biological process of interest and matches the data...
