Organismal movement is ubiquitous and facilitates important ecological mechanisms that
drive community and metacommunity composition and hence biodiversity. In most existing …

Energetic tidal-stream environments are characterized by frequent, variable, yet broadly
predictable currents containing ephemeral flow structures that change across multiple spatio …

Ambush predation is characterized by an animal scanning the environment from a
concealed position and then rapidly executing a surprise attack. Mantis shrimp …

An animal's movement rate is a central metric of movement ecology as it correlates with its
energy acquisition and expenditure. Obtaining accurate estimates of movement rate is …

Predator efficiency depends on how hunting tactics relate to habitat characteristics. Different
tactics such as ambush, stalking, and pursuit may lead to spatially heterogeneous …

Repeatability is an important concept in evolutionary analyses because it provides
information regarding the benefit of repeated measurements and, in most cases, a putative …

Consistent interindividual differences in behavior (ie,“behavioral types”) may be a key factor
in determining the outcome of species interactions. Studies that simultaneously account for …

Successfully perceiving risk and reward is fundamental to the fitness of an animal, and can
be achieved through a variety of perception tactics. For example, mesopredators may …

Non-consumptive effects (NCEs) of predators on prey can be as strong as consumptive
effects (CEs) and may be driven by numerous mechanisms, including predator …

Trade-offs have a central role in evolutionary ecology and life-history theory. Here, we
present evidence for the existence of a rarely studied trade-off between growth rate and …
