  Title Predicting prey capture rates of southern elephant seals from track and dive parameters Type Journal Article
  Year 2015 Publication Marine Ecology Progress Series Abbreviated Journal (down) Mar. Ecol. Prog. Ser.  
  Volume 541 Issue Pages  
  Keywords  
  Abstract In the marine environment, track and dive parameter data (obtained using Argos or GPS tags and time?depth recorders) are commonly used to provide proxies for foraging behaviour of marine predators. However, their accuracy is rarely assessed. Recently, the addition of head-mounted accelerometers has allowed for detection of prey capture attempts (PCAs) at sea, allowing for more accurate estimations of foraging behaviour. Despite increased numbers of such devices being deployed, their use is still marginal compared with other tools which measure track and dive parameters. The objectives of our study were (1) to identify the most relevant combination of tracking and diving metrics in predicting the frequency of PCAs in female southern elephant seals <i>Mirounga leonina</i> from the Kerguelen Islands, and (2) to apply it to a broader range of individuals for which only tracking and diving data were available. The results of our models were consistent with the optimal foraging theory as well as the optimal diving theory. The model with the best predictive performance was the one that combined both tracking and diving information. However, most of the variability in the number of PCAs could be solely explained by changes in the diving behaviour of seals. Finally, we used the best predictive model on 20 individuals, which had not been fitted with accelerometers, to determine their main foraging zones. The behavioural indicators established in this study constitute a useful ecological tool for population monitoring and conservation purposes.

  Title Lipids and life strategy of Arctic Calanus Type Journal Article
  Year 2009 Publication Marine Biology Research Abbreviated Journal (down) Mar. Biol. Res.  
  Volume 5 Issue 1 Pages 18 -39  
  Keywords Arctic, BARENTS-SEA, Calanus, EGG-PRODUCTION, fatty acids, FRAM STRAIT, GREENLAND SEA, HERBIVOROUS COPEPODS, life strategy, lipids, MARGINAL ICE-ZONE, NORTH-ATLANTIC, trophic markers, VERTICAL-DISTRIBUTION, WAX ESTERS, WEST GREENLAND,  
  Abstract The three Arctic Calanus species, C. finmarchicus (Gunnerus, 1765), C. glacialis (Jaschov, 1955), and C. hyperboreus, are the most important herbivores in Arctic seas in terms of species biomass. They play a key role in the lipid-based energy flux in the Arctic, converting low-energy carbohydrates and proteins in ice algae and phytoplankton into high-energy wax esters. In this paper we review the over-wintering strategy, seasonal migration, stage development, life span, feeding strategy, body size, lipid biochemistry and the geographic distribution of the three dominant Calanus species in Arctic waters. We then relate these parameters to other biotic and abiotic factors, such as the timing of the Arctic phytoplankton and ice algae bloom, sea ice cover and climate variability. We also present new data on fatty acid and fatty alcohol content in the three Calanus species in addition to reviewing the available literature on these topics. These data are analysed for species homogeneity and geographic grouping. The dominance of diatom fatty acid trophic markers in the lipids of Calanus underpins the importance of diatoms as Arctic primary producers, even if dinoflagellates and Phaeocystis pouchetii can also be important food sources for the calanoid copepods. We conclude that the Arctic Calanus species are herbivores, engineered to feed on the Arctic bloom, and that the timing of the bloom is the most important factor in determining the life strategies of the individual species.
