Journal ArticleDOI
Filtering and interpreting location errors in satellite telemetry of marine animals
Francois Royer,Molly Lutcavage +1 more
TL;DR: This work investigates here how classic time series technique, such as the Kalman Filter, can be made robust to uncover patterns in the data, and shows how measurement errors interact with the assumed movement model.
Journal ArticleDOI
Analysis of foraging movements of Atlantic bluefin tuna (Thunnus thynnus) : individuals switch between two modes of search behaviour
TL;DR: The authors' results provide evidence that bluefin tuna attempt to optimize their searching efficiency through adjustments in the duration and timing of switching between these two searching strategies.
Journal ArticleDOI
Single nucleotide polymorphism discovery in albacore and Atlantic bluefin tuna provides insights into worldwide population structure.
Aitor Albaina,Mikel Iriondo,I. Velado,Urtzi Laconcha,Iratxe Zarraonaindia,Haritz Arrizabalaga,Miguel Angel Pardo,Molly Lutcavage,W. S. Grant,Andone Estonba +9 more
TL;DR: The development of single nucleotide polymorphisms (SNPs) in albacore and BFT and the application of these SNPs to survey genetic variability across the geographic ranges of these tunas are reported.
Movements of bluefin tuna (thunnus thynnus l.) tagged in the mediterranean sea with pop-up satellite tags
G. De Metrio,G. P. Arnold,J. M. de la Serna,Barbara A. Block,Persefoni Megalofonou,Molly Lutcavage,Işık Oray,M. Deflorio +7 more
TL;DR: In this article, the authors investigated the migratory movements of Atlantic bluefin tuna (Thunnus thynnus, L.) between the Western and Eastern Atlantic, the two-stock hypothesis remains untested and exchange rates are still unidentified.
Journal ArticleDOI
Oxygen Transport in the Leatherback Sea Turtle Dermochelys coriacea
TL;DR: It is suggested that leatherback turtles rely on their enhanced blood and tissue O₂ stores rather than the lung O⁂ store during deep dives, which is similar to that of most mammals.
