Open AccessStrong thermal stratification reduces detection efficiency and range of acoustic telemetry in a large freshwater lake
The successful use of acoustic telemetry to detect fish hinges on understanding the factors that control the acoustic range. The speed-of-sound in water is primarily a function of density, and in freshwater la...

Living until proven dead: addressing mortality in acoustic telemetry research
Neglecting to account for the mortality of study animals in ecological research has the potential to lead to biased interpretation of behaviour. Considering the widespread use of acoustic telemetry to track t...

Open AccessIdentification of predation events in wild fish using novel acoustic transmitters
Acoustic telemetry is a commonly used tool to gain knowledge about aquatic animal ecology through the study of their movements. In telemetry studies researchers must make inferences regarding the movements and...

Open AccessThe influence of dynamic environmental interactions on detection efficiency of acoustic transmitters in a large, deep, freshwater lake
Acoustic telemetry is an increasingly common method used to address ecological questions about the movement, behaviour, and survival of freshwater and marine organisms. The variable performance of acoustic tel...
