Foraging behaviour of humpback whales (Megaptera novaeangliae): Automatic detection of feeding lunges from two-dimensional data
Pedersen, Maren Andrea (Master thesis; Mastergradsoppgave, 2020-09-10)Rorqual whales (Family Balaenopteridae) forage almost exclusively by performing so-called feeding lunges. It is difficult to study rorqual foraging behaviour through direct observation because most of the lunges are carried out deep in the water column. The introduction of high-resolution digital tags recording three-dimensional (3D) acceleration has allowed for the collection of complex movement ...
