Appendix C. Animation of Fig. 3, showing predicted locations, movement behavior states, and coordinates of three centers of attraction for a grey seal in the North Sea and eastern coast of Great Britain. Estimated movement states for the predicted locations (solid colored circles) correspond to the Farne Islands haul-out site (red), Abertay haul-out site (green), Dogger Bank foraging site (blue), or spatially-unassociated high-speed (light blue) and low-speed (magenta) exploratory states. Solid yellow circles indicate the estimated coordinates of the three centers of attraction, and solid black circles indicate observed locations in (a). Uncertainty in the estimated state (< 95% posterior probability) is indicated by smaller hollow circles within predicted locations in (a). Uncertainty in estimated coordinates are indicated by symmetric 95% credible intervals for predicted locations in (b).
