environments that they inhabit, from coastal and continental shelf ecosystems to polar seas …

Many marine animals use sound passively or actively for communication, foraging, predator
avoidance, navigation, and to sense their environment. The advent of acoustic recording …

Long‐distance migration has evolved in many organisms moving through different media
and using various modes of locomotion and transport. Migration continues to evolve or …

Squid, cuttlefish and octopuses, which form the marine mollusc group the cephalopods, are

During recent decades satellite telemetry using the Argos system has been used extensively
to track many species of marine mammals. However, the aquatic behavior of most of these …

In large marine predators, foraging entails movement. Quantitative models reveal how
behaviours can mediate individual movement, such that deviations from a random pattern …

The Argos satellite system is commonly used to track and relay behavioral data from marine
mammals, but their underwater habit results in a high proportion of locations of non …
