• GPS tracking a marine predator: the effects of precision, resolution and sampling rate on foraging tracks of African Penguins (2004, methodology): “Wilson 2001; Phillips et al. 2004) have been useful to determine gross movement patterns, but they lack the accuracy and level of detail provided by GPS loggers (Table 4). The only comparable method to determine fine-scale movement patterns of diving animals is dead reckoning (Wilson et al. 1991; Wi”
