Signalling and the evolution of cooperative foraging in dynamic environments. by Colin J Torney, Andrew Berdahl, Iain D Couzin

“…In this work, we examine a seemingly altruistic behaviour, the active recruitment of conspecifics to a food resource through signalling. Here collective, cooperative behaviour may provide highly nonlinear benefits to individuals, since group functionality has the potential to be far greater than the sum of the component parts, for example by enabling the effective tracking of a dynamic resource. …”
