On the role of #lakes in revealing nature of #animalmovement through #telemetry - new paper & great effort by Robert Lennox and a large team of authors from the Lake Fish Telemetry Group …ementecologyjournal.biomedcentral.com/articles/10.11… #animaltracking #fishtelemetry #fishsci #movementecology Alternet

New review paper out in Movement Ecology on #lake #telemetry 🐟 Lakes can be seen as microcosms for studying ecological processes & high res positioning 🤓🧐 check it out 👇 …ementecologyjournal.biomedcentral.com/articles/10.11… #trackingnotslacking

Happy to share the publication of our review on the ongoing big-data revolution in #MovementEcology in Science Magazine. With 36 co-authors from 29 institutions & 12 countries, we reviewed the main tools, insights, challenges and opportunities in the field science.org/doi/10.1126/sc…

On high-throughput #animaltracking technologies and ongoing #BigData revolution in #MovementEcology, new study by an amazing team led by Ran Nathan now published in Science Magazine science.org/doi/10.1126/sc… #fishsci #Ecology #AnimalMovement #biologging #Telemetry Lake Fish Telemetry Group

Revolution in high resolution tracking of fish and wildlife. In our new study in Science Magazine led by Ran Nathan we summarize the field and provide an outlook into the future of movement ecology Science Magazine science.org/doi/10.1126/sc…

So-called “big-data” analytics have transformed a variety of research fields from astronomy to genetics. A new #ScienceReview looks at how these modern techniques have been applied to the field of animal tracking and monitoring. fcld.ly/jmaf1lt

Hidden Markov Models are powerful tools for analysing ecological time series (movement, capture-recapture, etc). In this workshop at isec2022.org/workshops/ we'll cover the HMM basics and how to apply them using R packages. @RolandLangrock Sina Mews Théo Michelot Timo Adam

Our third international workshop of the #Lake #Fish #Telemetry Group is over. Many thanks to everyone for great enthusiasm and productive work! #fishsci #movementecology #freshwater #ecology #limnology #fishtelemetry Biology Centre CAS Alternet FishTeG European Tracking Network

🐦 Richard Glennie et al. reviewed five pitfalls one can encounter when using Hidden Markov models or their extensions to solve ecological problems 📖Co-author Timo Adam has simplified the article into this helpful infographic: view it now on the blog! bit.ly/385jxwc

Come work with us! We have two lectureships available in statistics for either research-and-teaching or teaching-focussed roles vacancies.st-andrews.ac.uk/Vacancies/W/40… University of St Andrews @StA_Maths_Stats CREEM_cake

Excellent talk by Marius Ötting at #iwsm2022 on using SSMs for modelling in-play betting behaviour ⚽️📉 Rouven Michels @RolandLangrock.

If you are looking for a quantitative ecology PhD then look no further! We in CREEM_cake are looking to recruit new PhD students to join our #ecology/#statistics/#baking community (1/4)

Looking for a PhD in statistical ecology or statistical medicine/molecular bio? We are advertising 14 topics on FindAPhd (findaphd.com/phds/school-of…) with further details at tinyurl.com/StAndStatsPhD2…. Open to UK and overseas students, and scholarships available.

New arXiv preprint: "hmmTMB: hidden Markov models with flexible covariate effects in R". Includes code for petrel movement analysis, and for Bayesian analysis of human activity data (appendix). Feedback welcome! arxiv.org/pdf/2211.14139…

Interested to fit state-space models using TMB? Watch my seminar youtube.com/watch?v=V_2Aw_… and do the associated tutorial github.com/eco4cast/Stati… Thanks Ecological Forecasting Initiative for the invite!
