Sampling frequency indicates the frequency at which we resampled the full individual trajectories (i.e., every 1s) to further build ibex spatial network. \(\hat{\alpha }\) [R²]: scale parameter estimate of network degree distribution and its associated model’s R-squared, C: network clustering coefficient, L: network characteristic path length
