Social information is predicted to enhance the quality of animals' migratory decisions in
dynamic ecosystems, but the relative benefits of social information in the long-range …

In the marine environment, dynamic physical processes shape biological productivity and
predator–prey interactions across multiple scales. Identifying pathways of physical …

Background Accurate predictions of animal occurrence in time and space are crucial for
informing and implementing science-based management strategies for threatened species …

Food resources in the ocean are often found in low densities, and need to be concentrated
for efficient consumption. This is done in part by oceanographic features transporting and …

Understanding the drivers of population abundance and distribution is fundamental to
ecology and key to informing conservation actions, particularly in endangered species like …

Many large pelagic organisms appear to select specific oceanic conditions, probably due to
physiological, energetic, reproductive, or other life history needs. However, prior to …

Understanding juvenile survival is crucial for the population ecology of long-lived species,
where parental guidance can significantly influence survival rates of completely naive …

The stable isotopes of nitrogen (δ15N) and carbon (δ13C) within whale baleen plates
provide an indirect measure of individual resource use, migration strategy, and physiological …

Ocean surface transport plays a critical role in marine ecosystems, influencing the complex
spatiotemporal patterns of both marine species and pollutants. The theory of Lagrangian …
