Mechanistic models of animal migration behaviour - their diversity, structure and use.

1.
Migration is a widespread phenomenon in the animal kingdom, including many taxonomic
groups and modes of locomotion. Developing an understanding of the proximate and ultimate
causes for this behaviour not only addresses fundamental ecological questions but has relevance
to many other fields, for example in relation to the spread of emerging zoonotic diseases, the
proliferation of invasive species, aeronautical safety as well as the conservation of migrants.
2.
Theoretical methods can make important contributions to our understanding of migration,
by allowing us to integrate findings on this complex behaviour, identify caveats in our under-
standing and to guide future empirical research efforts. Various mechanistic models exist to
date, but their applications seem to be scattered and far from evenly distributed across
taxonomic units.
3.
Therefore, we provide an overview of the major mechanistic modelling approaches used in
the study of migration behaviour and characterize their fundamental features, assumptions
and limitations and discuss their typical data requirements both for model parameterization
and for scrutinizing model predictions.
4.
Furthermore, we review 155 studies that have used mechanistic models to study animal
migration and analyse them with regard to the approaches used and the focal species, and
also explore their contribution to advancing current knowledge within six broad migration
ecology research themes.
5.
This identifies important gaps in our present knowledge, which should be tackled in future
research using existing and to-be developed theoretical approaches
