Re: [MORPHMET] new paper: elephant seal nose-metrics

Dear Andrea,

Absolutely fascinating!

Well, although not using GM methods, the book by William B. Evans & Alexey
V. Yablokov, "Noninvasive Study of Mammalian Populations" (Sofia/Moscow:
Pensoft, 2004) provides a lot of interesting ideas and insights on the use
of analytical techniques for living, non-sedated animals in the field. GM
methods would offer a powerful contribution in this regard.

With warmest regards,

[MORPHMET] new paper: elephant seal nose-metrics

2019-03-18 Thread andrea cardini

Dear All,
this out now: https://onlinelibrary.wiley.com/doi/abs/10./jzs.12276
“Nose‐metrics” of wild southern elephant seal (Mirounga leonina) males 
using image analysis and geometric morphometrics

JZSER, online first

As far as I know, it's one of the few applications of GMM on data from 
naturally behaving animals photographed in the field. By the way, if 
anyone has references of this type of work (NB not on sedated animals), 
please I'd appreciate having a pdf.


Thanks also to those who asked me reprints of the Evol. Biol. paper on 
spurious results in integration/modularity tests. Please, write me if 
you have no subscription and need the pdf, as it's not yet in my webpage.


Cheers

Andrea
