Sentence examples for distinct foraging from inspiring English sources

This study demonstrates the utility of reconstructed pedigrees in inferring recent movements in a dugongs distributed across a number of spatially distinct foraging locations in southern Queensland, Australia.

European shags on the Isle of May are known to be benthic feeders and to use two distinct foraging habitats in sandy and rocky areas [33].

While both colonies expanded their foraging ranges throughout the season, Oahu birds appeared to have a bi-modal distribution in the non-breeding season with two distinct foraging areas at parallel locations on either side of the International Date Line (Figure 4), whereas Kure birds had a single core foraging area significantly west of the Date Line (Figure 5).

This is not surprising because even closely related species, sharing the same roost, may show distinct foraging requirements and behaviours (e.g. dietary niche breadth, flying ability or energetic requirements [46], [47]).

Despite the fact that 3 individuals visited vessels in consecutive foraging trips, we did not gather conclusive evidence that attending fishing vessels represents a distinct foraging strategy, in terms of the characteristics of the travel path or activity while at sea.

The extreme divergence observed between these two species in venom composition might be explained by their distinct foraging strategies.

Despite distinct differences in foraging strategy, the mass specific power generated by the bats during wing induced take-off did not differ between species, with the exception of Myotis capaccinii.

The general results follow the rules described by Rands et al. [ 68], which we redescribe in more detail here as they are crucial to later understanding (and we give much greater consideration to the case where there is a distinct disadvantage to foraging together).

Similarly to the potential phenotypic variation in life history described above, individuals within a population may display distinct individual foraging strategies (e.g., Bolnick et al. 2003), behavioral syndromes (Sih et al. 2004), morphologies (e.g., Svanbäck and Eklöv 2003), or physiologies (e.g., Hoar 1976).

While only the longitudinal design of the study allowed detecting these dynamic patterns of circadian activities, the distinct behavioural changes in foraging and explorative activities support our notion that repeated rat exposure might serve as mouse model of chronic stress.

From this perspective, the framework considered here is certainly distinct from that corresponding to foraging activities and thus to a foraging syndrome.
