Processing of acceleration and dive data on-board satellite relay tags to investigate diving and foraging behaviour in free-ranging marine predators
International audience 1. Biologging technologies are changing the way in which the marine environment isobserved and monitored. However, because device retrieval is typically required toaccess the high-resolution data they collect, their use is generally restricted tothose animals that predictably...
