Most-cited papers in Animal Biotelemetry

Observing the unwatchable through acceleration logging of animal behavior

Danielle Brown, Roland Kays, Martin Wikelski et al. · 1 Jan 2013

Behavior is an important mechanism of evolution and it is paid for through energy expenditure. Nevertheless, field biologists can rarely observe animals for more than a fraction of their daily activities and attempts to quantify behavior for modeling ecological processes often exclude cryptic yet important behavioral events. Over the past few years, an explosion of…

Tracking animals in freshwater with electronic tags: past, present and future

Steven J. Cooke, Jonathan D. Midwood, Jason D. Thiem et al. · 1 Jan 2013

Considerable technical developments over the past half century have enabled widespread application of electronic tags to the study of animals in the wild, including in freshwater environments. We review the constraints associated with freshwater telemetry and biologging and the technical developments relevant to their use. Technical constraints for tracking animals are often influenced by the…

Classification of behaviour in housed dairy cows using an accelerometer-based activity monitoring system

Jorge A. Vázquez Diosdado, Z.E. Barker, Holly R. Hodges et al. · 10 Jun 2015

Advances in bio-telemetry technology have made it possible to automatically monitor and classify behavioural activities in many animals, including domesticated species such as dairy cows. Automated behavioural classification has the potential to improve health and welfare monitoring processes as part of a Precision Livestock Farming approach. Recent studies have used accelerometers and pedometers to classify…

The use of external electronic tags on fish: an evaluation of tag retention and tagging effects

Niels Jepsen, Eva B. Thorstad, Torgeir B. Havn et al. · 20 Oct 2015

External tagging of fish with electronic tags has been used for decades for a wide range of marine and freshwater species. In the early years of fish telemetry research, it was the most commonly used attachment method, but later internal implants became preferred. Recently, the number of telemetry studies using external tagging has increased, especially…

Animal Biotelemetry template — frequently asked questions

How do I write a paper in the Animal Biotelemetry format?
In DocuGuru you write your manuscript in a normal editor — no LaTeX setup required — and select the Animal Biotelemetry template. When you export, DocuGuru compiles the paper into the official BMC (BioMed Central) format and hands you a submission-ready PDF along with the editable LaTeX source.
What reference style does Animal Biotelemetry use?
Animal Biotelemetry uses Numbered (Vancouver) references, shown as numbered [1], [2] markers in the text. DocuGuru formats every in-text citation and the reference list in this exact style automatically. A reference appears like this: 1. Smith A, Jones B, Lee C. A representative article title.
