Optimal Foraging in Swirl

15 Jul 2019 | Contributor(s): Mary Elizabeth McWhirt, Emily Weigel | doi:10.25334/38NY-HP77

This lesson centers around the marginal value theorem (MVT, Charnov 1976), which describes how animals should forage in patches. It serves as a pre-lab to teach MVT basics, vectors, ANOVA, and basic plotting.
