3rd day #BLS7Hawaii Midnight snacks! #HumboldtPenguins are diving day and night at Tilgo #Chile but their dives are shallower than at day. Any guesses? Bocadillos de media noche #Pingüinos #Humboldt bucean tmb por la noche en Tilgo, pero menos profundo 🌎 Adivinan porque?

When I was still living in Sinaloa, I followed the reproduction and assessed the nutritional status of blue-footed boobies, want to see what we found? See our new publication : link.springer.com/article/10.100… Thanks Nina Dehnhard for your great support during writing!

Here are some of the results from Kelp gulls that we presented at #PSG2023 ! If you want to see our presentation visit: miriam-lerma.com/posts/psg2023/

My new blog post includes calculating the distance between points and making a map to show relevant distances using R. #rstats #ggplot2 Check it out at: miriam-lerma.com/posts/2024-06-…

When studying movement of animals we can have some gaps. In my new blogpost, I share a function I created in R to interpolate the data to fill those gaps. I also share link to other packages that also do the job. Check the post here: miriam-lerma.com/blog #rstats #seabirds

Certain locations need to be excluded when conducting spatial analyses, such as those near the nests. In this blog post, I share how I create a buffer in R #rstats to remove these locations. miriam-lerma.com/posts/2024-08-…

One, two, three trips. What's the number of times an animal leaves home? This is one of the questions we have when examining animal locations. In this post, I share the code I used for assigning a trip number to a series of locations. #rstats #seabirds miriam-lerma.com/posts/2024-09-…

How far is it? When studying animal movement, we often need to calculate the distance an animal covers from one location to another. In this post, I share the code I use to calculate the distance between consecutive locations. #seabirds #rstat miriam-lerma.com/posts/2024-10-…

When tracking animals, there may be times when they enter areas with no reception. In this post, I’ll walk you through the steps I used to determine whether trips are complete or incomplete. miriam-lerma.com/posts/2024-11-…

When analyzing tracking data in R, you may want to explore the locations. R also offers interactive mapping features. In this post, I’ll walk you through the steps I used to create interactive maps using miriam-lerma.com/posts/2024-12-…

Una ballena gris se suma a la lista de cetáceos que han aparecido sin vida en Mazatlán durante la actual temporada de avistamientos de ballenas, para sumar un total de cuatro. Los tres casos anteriores corresponden a ballenas jorobadas. PROFEPA sonplayas.com/playas/ahora-u…
