Energy and the scaling of animal space use

N Tamburello, IM Côté, NK Dulvy - The American Naturalist, 2015 - journals.uchicago.edu
Daily animal movements are usually limited to a discrete home range area that scales
allometrically with body size, suggesting that home-range size is shaped by metabolic rates …

Marine predator inspired naked mole-rat algorithm for global optimization

This paper proposes a hybrid version of marine predator algorithm (MPA) and naked mole-
rat algorithm (NMRA) to aggregate the strengths of both algorithms. The new proposed …

Lévy flight and Brownian search patterns of a free‐ranging predator reflect different prey field characteristics

DW Sims, NE Humphries, RW Bradford… - Journal of Animal …, 2012 - Wiley Online Library

Numerous essays have addressed the misuse of the journal impact factor for judging the
value of science, but the practice continues, primarily as a result of the actions of scientists …

What, where and when: spatial foraging decisions in primates

C Trapanese, H Meunier, S Masi - Biological Reviews, 2019 - Wiley Online Library
When exploiting the environment, animals have to discriminate, track, and integrate salient
spatial cues to navigate and identify goal sites. Actually, they have to know what can be …
