A new methodology for computing birds’ 3D home ranges

Abstract Background So far, studies of avian space use are mostly realized in 2D, with the vertical dimension ignored. We propose here a new, relatively simple and computationally reasonable method for the estimation of volumetric (i.e. 3D) avian home ranges. Methods Through accurate GPS data-logger...
