It is becoming increasingly important for wildlife managers and conservation ecologists to understand which resources are selected or avoided by an animal and how to best predict future spatial distributions of animal populations in the long term. Ho

Abstract Telemetry has enabled ecologists to link animal movement trajectories and environmental features at a fine spatiotemporal resolution; however, the effects of social interactions on individual choice within large mobile groups remain largely

Abstract Statistical models use observations of animals to make inferences about the abundance and distribution of species. However, the spatial distribution of animals is a complex function of many factors, including landscape and environmental feat

Abstract Human activities are transforming landscapes and altering the structure and functioning of ecosystems worldwide and often result in sharp contrasts between human‐dominated landscapes and adjacent natural habitats that lead to the creation

Abstract Background In recent years the field of movement ecology has been revolutionized by our ability to collect high-accuracy, fine scale telemetry data from individual animals and groups. This growth in our data collection capacity has led to th

Emergent dynamics of complex systems are observed throughout nature and society. The coordinated motion of bird flocks, the spread of opinions, fashions and fads, or the dynamics of an epidemic, are all examples of complex macroscale phenomena that a

Individuals of many species utilise social information whilst making decisions. While many studies have examined social information in making large scale decisions, there is increasing interest in the use of fine scale social cues in groups. By exami

A natural extension to standard Gaussian process (GP) regression is the use of non-stationary Gaussian processes, an approach where the parameters of the covariance kernel are allowed to vary in time or space. The non-stationary GP is a flexible mode

Inferring the underlying processes that drive collective behaviour in biological and social systems is a significant statistical and computational challenge. While simulation models have been successful in qualitatively capturing many of the phenomen
