论文摘要
运动是生命的基础,塑造人口动态,生物多样性模式和生态系统结构。跟踪技术的最新进展使有关运动的基本问题,导致运动生态框架(MEF)的发展,被认为是该领域的里程碑[1]。 MEF引入了一种有机运动的综合理论,将内部状态,运动能力和导航能力与外部因素联系起来。十年后,我们研究了该领域的当前研究状态。使用> 8000个同行评审的运动生态学论文的文本挖掘方法,我们探讨了主要的研究主题,评估了MEF的影响,并评估了技术设备,软件和统计方法的使用变化。出版物的数量已大大增加,在过去的十年中,技术发生了重大变化(即〜增加使用GPS设备,加速度计和摄像机的使用以及对R的融合),但我们发现研究侧重于相同的问题,特别是对环境因素对运动和行为的影响。实际上,运动生态学研究似乎并不能反映MEF。我们呼吁研究人员将该领域从技术驱动到拥抱跨学科的合作,以揭示运动基础运动(例如〜导航)以及特定策略的进化,生理和生活历史后果。
Movement is fundamental to life, shaping population dynamics, biodiversity patterns, and ecosystem structure. Recent advances in tracking technology have enabled fundamental questions about movement to be tackled, leading to the development of the movement ecology framework (MEF), considered a milestone in the field [1]. The MEF introduced an integrative theory of organismal movement, linking internal state, motion capacity and navigation capacity to external factors. Here, a decade later, we investigated the current state of research in the field. Using a text mining approach on >8000 peer-reviewed papers in movement ecology, we explored the main research topics, evaluated the impact of the MEF, and assessed changes in the use of technological devices, software and statistical methods. The number of publications has increased considerably and there have been major technological changes in the past decade (i.e.~increased use of GPS devices, accelerometers and video cameras, and a convergence towards R), yet we found that research focuses on the same questions, specifically, on the effect of environmental factors on movement and behavior. In practice, it appears that movement ecology research does not reflect the MEF. We call on researchers to transform the field from technology-driven to embrace interdisciplinary collaboration, in order to reveal key processes underlying movement (e.g.~navigation), as well as evolutionary, physiological and life-history consequences of particular strategies.
