Coping styles in capital breeders modulate behavioural trade-offs in time allocation: assessing fine-scale activity budgets in lactating grey seals (Halichoerus grypus) using accelerometry and heart rate variability (2019)
Journal Article
Shuert, C. R., Pomeroy, P. P., & Twiss, S. D. (2020). Coping styles in capital breeders modulate behavioural trade-offs in time allocation: assessing fine-scale activity budgets in lactating grey seals (Halichoerus grypus) using accelerometry and heart rate variability. Behavioral Ecology and Sociobiology, 74(1), Article 8. https://doi.org/10.1007/s00265-019-2783-8

Balancing time allocation among competing behaviours is an essential part of energy management for all animals. However, trade-offs in time allocation may vary according to the sex of the individual, their age, and even underlying physiology. During...

Pinnipeds spend large portions of their lives at sea, submerged, or hauled-out on land, often on remote of-shore islands. This fundamentally limits access by researchers to critical parts of pinniped life history and has spurred the development and i...
