Excited to announce our courses for #MovementEcology.π€
This year we will be in #Africa @mpalarc.bsky.social at Mpala Research Centre. Starting with a basic R course designed for #AfricanResearchers, followed by a two-week international Animove workshop. animove.org/basic-r-cour... Please share π
Thank you so much for these two brilliant weeks in the jungle ππ¦π¦₯πΏ it was intense, we worked and sweat a lot but the memories will stay forever! Beautiful place, awesome passionate group of people π€© looking forward to keeping in touch and reading about all the amazing research!
It was an amazing two weeks!
We worked hard, coded a lot, and listened to very interesting lectures.
Now it's time to come back home, and start the implementation phase.
Thank you very much for all @animove-course.bsky.social staff, you are awesome!
It is time to say Goodbye π₯Ί Today is the last day of #Animove at #OTS #LaSelva in Costa Rica. It was two weeks of fun in the jungle with many motivated #animalmovement researchers learning different methods for analysing their data. Stay in touch!
A quick introduction to the herbarium -home to more than 10,000 plant specimens - by Orlando Vargas from the #OrganizationforTropicalStudies, was a welcome break from laptop work for the participants. Thank you ! π±πΏ @mpi-animalbehav.bsky.social @animaltracking.bsky.social #CostaRica
Weekend break was fun, now back to work π Whilst the first week was teaching heavy, the second week is focusing on the learned new methods using data sets that everyone has brought along to work with.
Day 5 of week 1 @animove-course.bsky.social was about analysing our movement data together with their environmental context, through resource selection and step selection functions.
#laselvaresearchstation #costarica @animaltracking.bsky.social
The fourth day of #AnimoveCR was all about environmental context, how to download and process information about our planet (remote sensing and climate data).
The day ended with a fantastic talk by @njklappstein.bsky.social speaking about her research on polar bears π»ββοΈ
@mpi-animalbehav.bsky.social
Another day of #AnimoveCR π Analysing animal movement with continuous-time models by @ecoisilva.bsky.social and Chris Fleming, ending with a fantastic plenary talk by @kamransafi.bsky.social on Kruger National Park research.
Second day of #AnimoveCR was all about the geometry of movement trajectories and their behavioural segmentation using hidden markov models.....but also a little bit of shopping π€
#AnimoveCR has started ππ¦₯π¦πΈπ¦π¦π·οΈ with a Natural History Walk. It was fantastic!
Excited to be in Costa Rica for the #AnimoveCR course in Movemenent Ecology that starts soon! Ready to meet everyone!πΈππ’π¦₯π¦π¦πͺΈ
Meanwhile visiting volcanos π
