Journal ArticleDOI
Space partitioning without territoriality in gannets.

Jackson,Mark Jessopp,Adam Kane,Rowena H. W. Langston,Amélie Lescroël,Amélie Lescroël,Stuart Murray,Mélanie Le Nuz,Samantha C. Patrick,Clara Péron,Louise M. Soanes,Sarah Wanless,Stephen C. Votier,Keith C. Hamer +23 more
TL;DR: It is found that northern gannets, satellite-tracked from 12 neighboring colonies, nonetheless forage in largely mutually exclusive areas and that these colony-specific home ranges are determined by density-dependent competition.
Journal ArticleDOI
V-Track: software for analysing and visualising animal movement from acoustic telemetry detections
TL;DR: V-Track is a package written within the R-programming language, and a graphical user interface is also provided, which provides software functionality for defining and quantifying behaviour in acoustically tagged marine and freshwater vertebrates.
Journal ArticleDOI
Shedding light on light: benefits of anthropogenic illumination to a nocturnally foraging shorebird.
TL;DR: It is argued that light emitted from an industrial complex improved nocturnal visibility, allowing sight-based foraging in place of tactile foraging, implying both a preference for sight-feeding and enhanced night-time foraging opportunities under these conditions.
Journal ArticleDOI
Integrating research using animal‐borne telemetry with the needs of conservation management
Jennifer McGowan,Maria Beger,Rebecca L. Lewison,Robert Harcourt,Hamish A. Campbell,Mark A. Priest,Ross G. Dwyer,Hsien-Yung Lin,Pia E. Lentini,Christine L. Dudgeon,Clive R. McMahon,Matthew E. Watts,Hugh P. Possingham +12 more
TL;DR: A framework is defined that distinguishes how research using animal telemetry devices can influence conservation and the use of value of information analysis is suggested to quantitatively assess the return-on-investment of animaltelemetry-derived data for conservation decision-making.
Journal ArticleDOI
Individual and Population Benefits of Marine Reserves for Reef Sharks
Ross G. Dwyer,Ross G. Dwyer,Nils C. Krueck,Nils C. Krueck,Vinay Udyawer,Vinay Udyawer,Michelle R. Heupel,Demian D. Chapman,Harold L. Pratt,Harold L. Pratt,Ricardo C. Garla,Colin A. Simpfendorfer +11 more
TL;DR: It is discovered that the world's officially recorded coral reef-based managed areas would need to be enforced as strict no-take MPAs and up to 5 times larger to expect protection of the majority of individuals of the five investigated reef shark species.
