  Mar Ecol Prog Ser 673:117-134 (2021)

  Tracking studies for invasive lionfish ( Pterois volitans and P. miles ) in the Western Atlantic can provide key information on habitat use to inform population control, but to date have likely…

• Movements of egg-bearing American lobsters Homarus americanus during late stage brooding and hatching

  Mar Ecol Prog Ser 661:163-173 (2021)

  Although the large-scale movements of ovigerous (egg-bearing) American lobsters have been well-studied, their finer scale movements before, and during, the time when their eggs hatch are poorly…

• Widespread and frequent feeding by humpback whales in a highly productive Pacific Mexican breeding area

  Mar Ecol Prog Ser

  Baleen whales are extreme capital breeders, fueling reproduction and some of the longest migrations on the planet almost entirely on stored energy. As climate warming impacts the high-latitude feeding…

• Home range and movement speed of Pycnopodia helianthoides

  Mar Ecol Prog Ser

  The sunflower sea star ( Pycnopodia helianthoides ) is an important predator in waters off the Pacific Coast of North America. It is listed as critically endangered (IUCN Red List) and was recommended…

• Wild versus head-started hawksbill turtles Eretmochelys imbricata: post-release behavior and feeding adaptions

  Endang Species Res 10:181-190 (2010)

  To ensure the success of reintroduction programs, it is important to monitor the post-release behavior and survival of released animals. In this study, the post-release movement and behavior of 5 wild…

• An integrated model improves inferences about survival in the Mojave desert tortoise

  Endang Species Res 59:esr01468 (2026)

  The Mojave desert tortoise Gopherus agassizii experienced population declines during recent decades, which have persisted despite its designation as a federally protected species. A small number of…

• Sexual segregation in a wide-ranging marine predator is a consequence of habitat selection

  Mar Ecol Prog Ser 518:1-12 (2015)

  Sexual segregation, common in many species, is usually attributed to intra-specific competition or habitat choice. However, few studies have simultaneously quantified sex-specific foraging behaviour…
