Accelerometry predicts daily energy ependiture in a bird with high activity levels
International audience Animal ecology is shaped by energy costs, yet it is difficult to measure fine-scale energy expenditure in the wild. Because metabolism is often closely cor-related with mechanical work, accelerometers have the potential to provide detailed information on energy expenditure of...

International audience Animal ecology is shaped by energy costs, yet it is difficult to measure fine-scale energy expenditure in the wild.
