Collective animal activity

The combined or aggregated activity pattern of multiple animals considered as a group rather than as isolated individuals. Within WIVVI, this concept includes sensor-derived measures of movement or behavioural change across one or more species. It does not, by itself, imply that the activity is caused by an earthquake or constitutes a reliable precursor.

Concept Type: behaviour, collective behaviour, measurement
