The identification of sea turtle behaviours is a prerequisite to predicting the activities and time-budget these animals in their natural habitat over long term. However, this hampered by lack reliable methods that enable detection monitoring certain key such as feeding. This study proposes combined approach automatically identifies different free-ranging turtles through use animal-borne multi-sensor recorders (accelerometer, gyroscope time-depth recorder), validated video-recorder data. We...
Marine herbivores face rapid changes in the coastal ecosystems where they forage. In Caribbean, recent and fast expansion of invasive phanerogam species Halophila stipulacea is threatening native seagrass ecosystems. So far, H. escaping most Caribbean herbivores, certainly because its introduction or lower nutritional value. We investigated impact invasion on fine-scale foraging habitat selection food resource immature green turtles at critical sites Les Anses d′Arlet, Martinique. The...
The change of animal biometrics (body mass and body size) can reveal important information about their living environment as well determine the survival potential reproductive success individuals thus persistence populations. However, weighing like marine turtles in field presents logistical difficulties. In this context, estimating (BM) based on size is a crucial issue. Furthermore, determinants variability parameters for relationship provide quality manner which exploit available...
