How researchers see this paper

The researchers whose trusted networks rank it highest, strongest advocate first. Every researcher gets a different order.

Global positioning system and associated technologies in animal behaviour and ecological research (2010, methodology): “Telemetry system performance is important information for designing studies (Ryan et al. 2004; Mills et al. 2006; Horne et al. 2007; Mitchell & Powell 2008; Godvik et al. 2009).”
Piloting a Non-Invasive Genetic Sampling Method for Evaluating Population-Level Benefits of Wildlife Crossing Structures (2010, background): “Intense sampling frequencies are required to determine fine-scale movements (Mills et al. 2006) and battery life on most GPS transmitters precludes real-time monitoring, so crossing events could be easily missed.”
A flexible GPS tracking system for studying bird behaviour at multiple scales (2012, background): “In general, the accuracy of a GPS increases with longer power-up time, shorter intervals between measurements (Mills et al. 2006) and a more open view of the sky (Cargnelutti et al. 2007).”
Resolving issues of imprecise and habitat-biased locations in ecological analyses using GPS telemetry data (2010, background): “2006), and the even more frequent fixes required to capture brief but long-distance forays (Mills et al. 2006; Kochanny et al. 2009), can be difficult to acquire using traditional radiotelemetry techniques.”
