Modeling Coral Reef Fish Home Range Movements in Dry Tortugas, Florida

Table 1

Input parameters for individual-based mechanistic localizing tendency movement model, based on observed movements of reef fish in Dry Tortugas, Florida.

Common name	𝑛	Detections	Moves	𝜓	𝜆±SE	𝜅±SE
Red grouper	44	2,103,428	16,821	0.80%	561±3	3.67±0.04
Black grouper	2	84,108	437	0.56%	456±14	1.19±0.09
Mutton snapper	2	22,006	1,267	5.76%	608±11	3.20±0.11

Note: n denotes number of fish with detected movement used to parameterize model, 𝜓 denotes probability of movement during 5 min interval, 𝜆 denotes mean of exponential distribution of movement distances, and κ denotes mean of von Mises distribution of turning angles between movements, relative to home range center.
