Infinite Speed of Propagation and Regularity of Solutions to the Fractional Porous Medium Equation in General Domains (2015, background): “These stochastic processes play an important role in probability and have been used in recent years to model prices in finance [26,59] and anomalous diffusions in physics [52,55], biology, and ecology [44, 56], among others.”
What makes fish vulnerable to capture by hooks? A conceptual framework and a review of key determinants (2017, background): “Biological encounters are described in the fields of movement ecology and optimal search behaviour in predator- prey systems (Viswanathan, Raposo, & da Luz, 2008), both in animal (Humphries et al., 2010; Viswanathan, 2010) and human systems (Raichlen et al., 2014).”
Ontogeny in marine tagging and tracking science: technologies and data gaps (2012, background): “These fish have been outfitted with pop-up tags to assess movement patterns (Block et al. 2001, Humphries et al. 2010), behavioral ecology (Sims 2010, Hammerschlag et al. 2011), spawning habitat (Block et al. 2001), and more recently to improve stock assessment models (Taylor et al. 2011).”
Harris hawks optimization: Algorithm and applications (2019, background): “It has been conﬁrmed that LF-based activities are the optimal searching tactics for foragers/predators in non-destructive foraging conditions [42, 43].”
Fractional diffusion with Neumann boundary conditions: the logistic equation (2012, background): “A typical example in this context is provided by Lévy flights in ecology: optimal search theory predicts that predators should adopt search strategies based on long jumps –frequently called Lévy flights– where prey is sparse and distributed unpredictably, Brownian motion being more efficient only fo”
Random walks and diffusion on networks (2016, background): “mple, a \hungry RW" (taking some inspiration from the arcade game Pac-Man) has yielded insights into anomalous diusion in bacteria [81], Levy ights can help capture features of animal foraging [9, 11], multiplicative RWs are a useful approach for examining the dynamics of - nancial markets [20,”
The Behavioral Ecology of Nutrient Foraging by Plants (2011, methodology): “The application of the existing theory of animal movement (e.g., Levy walk; Humphries et al. 2010) to root growth may provide insights into nutrient foraging strategies.”
New Insights into Pelagic Migrations: Implications for Ecology and Conservation (2012, background): “Their ease and intuitiveness have made them tractable to many biologists, and they have been fit to movement data collected from a wide range of migratory marine species (e.g., Humphries et al. 2010, Sims et al. 2008, Viswanathan et al. 1999).”
Aquatic animal telemetry: A panoramic window into the underwater world (2015, background): “2D) (35) and freshwater burbot (Lota lota) (36) show distinct profiles associated with bioenergetic gains, the vertical structuring of prey resources, predator avoidance, and social behavior.”
Basking sharks and oceanographic fronts: quantifying associations in the north‐east Atlantic (2015, background): “…such as behaviours approximating theoretically optimal L evy walks, have been identified in a variety of marine taxa (Viswanathan et al. 1999; Sims et al. 2008; Humphries et al. 2012) and linked to oceanographic context (Hays et al. 2006; Humphries et al. 2010) and prey fields (Sims et al. 2012).”
Nonlocal transmission problems with fractional diffusion and boundary conditions on non-smooth interfaces (2017, background): “Such “restricted” Lévymotions show up an importantmodels in both applied mathematics and applied probability [3, 5, 11, 20, 29, 40, 46], as well as in models in biology and ecology [27, 45].”
