Quantifying uncertainty and dynamical changes in multi-species fishing mortality rates, catches and biomass by combining state-space and mechanistic multi-species models
Michael A. Spence, Robert B. Thorpe, Paul G. Blackwell +3
In marine management, fish stocks are often managed on a stock-by-stock basis using single-species models. Many of these models are based upon statistical techniques and are good a…
Inference in MCMC step selection models
Théo Michelot, Paul G. Blackwell, Simon Chamaillé-Jammes +1
Habitat selection models are used in ecology to link the distribution of animals to environmental covariates, and identify habitats that are important for conservation. The most wi…
The Langevin diffusion as a continuous-time model of animal movement and habitat selection
Théo Michelot, Marie-Pierre Etienne, Pierre Gloaguen
1. The utilisation distribution describes the relative probability of use of a spatial unit by an animal. It is natural to think of it as the long-term consequence of the animal's…
State-switching continuous-time correlated random walks
Théo Michelot, Paul G. Blackwell
Continuous-time models have been developed to capture features of animal movement across temporal scales. In particular, one popular model is the continuous-time correlated random…
Integrated Continuous-time Hidden Markov Models
Paul G Blackwell
Motivated by applications in movement ecology, in this paper I propose a new class of integrated continuous-time hidden Markov models in which each observation depends on the under…
Gaussian process modeling of heterogeneity and discontinuities using Voronoi tessellations
Christopher A. Pope, John Paul Gosling, Stuart Barber +4
Many methods for modelling spatial processes assume global smoothness properties; such assumptions are often violated in practice. We introduce a method for modelling spatial proce…
Multi-model ensembles for ecosystem prediction
Michael A Spence, Julia L. Blanchard, Axel G. Rossberg +7
When making predictions about ecosystems, we often have available a number of different ecosystem models that attempt to represent their dynamics in a detailed mechanistic way. Eac…
Linking resource selection and step selection models for habitat preferences in animals
Théo Michelot, Paul G. Blackwell, Jason Matthiopoulos
The two dominant approaches for the analysis of species-habitat associations in animals have been shown to reach divergent conclusions. Models fitted from the viewpoint of an indiv…
Bayesian inference for multistate `step and turn' animal movement in continuous time
Alison Parton, Paul G. Blackwell
Mechanistic modelling of animal movement is often formulated in discrete time despite problems with scale invariance, such as handling irregularly timed observations. A natural sol…
Bayesian inference for continuous time animal movement based on steps and turns
Alison Parton, Paul G. Blackwell, Anna Skarin
Although animal locations gained via GPS, etc. are typically observed on a discrete time scale, movement models formulated in continuous time are preferable in order to avoid the s…
Statistical modelling of individual animal movement: an overview of key methods and a discussion of practical challenges
Toby A Patterson, Alison Parton, Roland Langrock +3
With the influx of complex and detailed tracking data gathered from electronic tracking devices, the analysis of animal movement data has recently emerged as a cottage industry amo…
Modelling group dynamic animal movement
Roland Langrock, J. Grant C. Hopcraft, Paul G. Blackwell +7
Group dynamic movement is a fundamental aspect of many species' movements. The need to adequately model individuals' interactions with other group members has been recognised, part…
