Mission:
The utilization of state-of-art tracking technologies with geographic information systems to understand fundamental physiological, behavioral, and ecological processes. We have tracked species ranging from minnows to white sharks to harbor seals with ultrasonic, radio, archival, and satellite tags as well as detected them with automated monitors. Our studies aim to elucidate the link between an animal's behavior and its social and physical environment.
