Assessing accuracy and utility of satellite-tracking data using Argos-linked Fastloc-GPS (2010, background): “2002), both for air-breathing marine vertebrates that spend much of their time submerged and therefore often obscured from overhead satellites (Ryan et al. 2004) and for terrestrial species occupying dense-canopied regions such as forests.”
Novel GPS tracking of sea turtles as a tool for conservation management (2007, background): “There are several initiatives underway to achieve this goal and some limited success has been achieved, depending on species and surfacing interval (Sisak, 1998; Jay and Garner, 2002; Ryan et al., 2004; Yasuda and Arai, 2005; Petersen et al., 2006; Sheppard et al., 2006).”
Foraging behaviour and energetics of Cape gannets Morus capensis feeding on live prey and fishery discards in the Benguela upwelling system (2007, methodology): “128 Pichegru et al.: Seabird foraging on live prey versus fishery discards Three types of data logger were used: (1) GPS-TD loggers (earth & Ocean Technologies) are miniaturised GPS devices combined with timedepth recorders (see Ryan et al. 2004 for details).”
Overlap between vulnerable top predators and fisheries in the Benguela upwelling system: implications for marine protected areas (2009, methodology): “The tracking loggers deployed on the birds have been used on several occasions and are only briefly described here (see details in Grémillet et al. 2004, Ryan et al. 2004).”
Prying into the intimate details of animal lives: use of a daily diary on animals (2008, methodology): “…unit does not currently have the capacity to take fixes according to conditions (such as prohibiting start-up when the animal is underwater; cf. Ryan et al. 2004), it is extremely small, weighing 21 g and having outside dimensions of 45 × 25 × 18 mm and a life expectancy that depends largely…”
Microhabitat use and prey capture of a bottom-feeding top predator, the European shag, shown by camera loggers (2008, background): “Global positioning system data loggers provide data on fine-scale movement of animals (Ryan et al. 2004), but accompanying information on benthic microhabitat remains problematic to collect.”
