Detecting Ultra- and Circadian Activity Rhythms of Dairy Cows in Automatic Milking Systems Using the Degree of Functional Coupling—A Pilot Study

Detecting Ultra- and Circadian Activity Rhythms of Dairy Cows in Automatic Milking Systems Using the Degree of Functional Coupling—A Pilot Study

Ultra- and circadian activity rhythms of animals can provide important insights into animal welfare. The consistency of behavioral patterns is characteristic of healthy organisms, while changes in the regularity of behavioral rhythms may indicate health and stress-related challenges. This pilot stud...
