The tortuosity of an animal's path is a key parameter in orientation and searching
behaviours. The tortuosity of an oriented path is inversely related to the efficiency of the …

A goal of animal movement analysis is to reveal behavioural mechanisms by which
organisms utilize complex and variable environments. Statistical analysis of movement data …

Organisms respond to environmental heterogeneity at different scales and in different ways.
These differences are consequences of how the movement characteristics of animals—their …

Lévy walks (LW) are superdiffusive and scale‐free random walks that have recently
emerged as a new conceptual tool for modeling animal search paths. They have been …

Ecologists need a better understanding of how animals make decisions about moving
across landscapes. To this end, we developed computer simulations that contrast the …

Animal movement has been the focus on much theoretical and empirical work in ecology
