Speakers: Sophie Dupont
I’m delighted to present the first results of my current post-doctoral position conducted between the CEFE (Montpellier, France) and the CiBIO (Vairao, Portugal) in collaboration with the DEPE. Here, I studied for the first time in male sociable weavers (Philetairus socius) whether early-adult telomere length and dynamics are linked to global survival probability. To do so, I measured relative telomere length at 1- and 3-years-old (i.e., before vs after reaching sexual maturity) for 162 males from a long-term monitored population at the Benfontein Reserve (Kimberley, South Africa). By coupling telomere characteristics and Bayesian capture-recapture data within the hidden Markov model framework, I was interested about how telomeres length and changes over two years relate to global survival, considering detailed individual life-history. During this BEEPs seminar, I’m also describing the burning research issue I will develop based on the laboratory work I’m achieving during my ongoing 3-months mission at the DEPE.

Retour à l'agendaBEEPS : Seabird-MPA: Investigating potential effects of marine protected areas on seabird populations
Speakers: Norith Eckbo Seabirds are important health indicators for marine ecosystems and can help map areas with high biodiversity value. But seabird populations are also facing serious threats from multiple human activities along the coast and out at sea. In the Seabird-MPA pilot project, we investigate how seabirds may benefit from marine protected areas through diet quality. The project aims to investigate how to study the reproduction of two coastal seabird species, the black-backed seagull and the common eider, and potential benefit from a network of different marine protected areas (e.g. no-take area, lobster reserve, nature reserve) in South of Norway. Methods include individual GPS-tracking of spatial use, analysing ecophysiological parameters, monitoring of breeding success, and quantifying biodiversity through e-DNA linked to diet quality within vs outside marine protected areas. https://indico.in2p3.fr/event/33770/
