Hydrodynamic handicaps and organizational complexity in the foraging behavior of two free-ranging penguin species
International audience Background: Animal movement exhibits self-similarity across a range of both spatial and temporal scales reminiscentof statistical fractals. Stressors are known to induce changes in these statistical patterns of behavior, although thedirection and interpretation of such changes...
