In many areas of animal behaviour research, improvements in our ability to collect large and
detailed data sets are outstripping our ability to analyse them. These diverse, complex and …

Self-propelled particles include both self-phoretic synthetic colloids and various
microorganisms. By continually consuming energy, they bypass the laws of equilibrium …

It has long been proposed that flying and swimming animals could exploit neighbour-
induced flows. Despite this it is still not clear whether, and if so how, schooling fish …

Transfer Entropy Page 1 Chapter 4 Transfer Entropy In this chapter we get to the essential
mathematics of the book—a detailed discussion of transfer entropy. To begin with we look at …

Social organisation in animals takes many forms. It includes assemblages of territorial
animals, dominance hierarchies and social groups, among other things. The basic tenet that …

The ubiquity of consistent inter-individual differences in behavior (" animal personalities")[1,
2] suggests that they might play a fundamental role in driving the movements and …

Turbulence is ubiquitous, from oceanic currents to small-scale biological and quantum
systems. Self-sustained turbulent motion in microbial suspensions presents an intriguing …

We review theoretical models of individual motility as well as collective dynamics and
pattern formation of active particles. We focus on simple models of active dynamics with a …

The behavior of individuals determines the strength and outcome of ecological interactions,
which drive population, community, and ecosystem organization. Bio-logging, such as …

Self-sustained turbulent structures have been observed in a wide range of living fluids, yet
no quantitative theory exists to explain their properties. We report experiments on active …
