Workshop on animal movement analysis focusing in the marine environment
DATES: 19-23 May 2025
TYPE: In-person only
WHERE: Funchal, Madeira, Portugal
Target audience: PhD students and researchers with some experience with animal movement or spatial/temporal patterns analysis in the marine environment.
The study of animal movement—the change in spatial location over time—is fundamental to understanding many ecological and evolutionary research questions. Recent advances in biologging and biotelemetry have transformed movement ecology, providing new insights into animal movement patterns. Simultaneously, sophisticated statistical and mathematical methods have been developed to analyze this data.
The workshop will guide participants through movement data processing and analysis stages. We will examine various data processing and analysis stages...
