Title Underwater photogrammetry for close-range 3D imaging of dry-sensitive objects: The case study of cephalopod beaks Type Journal
Year 2021 Publication Ecology and Evolution Abbreviated Journal
Volume 11 Issue 12 Pages 7730-7742
Keywords 3D models cephalopod beaks dry-sensitive material micro-CT scanning micro-photogrammetry underwater photogrammetry
Abstract Technical advances in 3D imaging have contributed to quantifying and understanding biological variability and complexity. However, small, dry-sensitive objects are not easy to reconstruct using common and easily available techniques such as photogrammetry, surface scanning, or micro-CT scanning. Here, we use cephalopod beaks as an example as their size, thickness, transparency, and dry-sensitive nature make them particularly challenging. We developed a new, underwater, photogrammetry protocol in order to add these types of biological structures to the panel of photogrammetric possibilities. We used a camera with a macrophotography mode in a waterproof housing fixed in a tank with clear water. The beak was painted and fixed on a colored rotating support. Three angles of view, two acquisitions, and around 300 pictures per specimen were taken in order to reconstruct a full 3D model. These models were compared with others obtained with micro-CT scanning to verify their accuracy. The models can be obtained quickly and cheaply compared with micro-CT scanning and have sufficient precision for quantitative interspecific morphological analyses. Our work shows that underwater photogrammetry is a fast, noninvasive, efficient, and accurate way to reconstruct 3D models of dry-sensitive objects while conserving their shape. While the reconstruction of the shape is accurate, some internal parts cannot be reconstructed with photogrammetry as they are not visible. In contrast, these structures are visible using reconstructions based on micro-CT scanning. The mean difference between both methods is very small (10−5 to 10−4 mm) and is significantly lower than differences between meshes of different individuals. This photogrammetry protocol is portable, easy-to-use, fast, and reproducible. Micro-CT scanning, in contrast, is time-consuming, expensive, and nonportable. This protocol can be applied to reconstruct the 3D shape of many other dry-sensitive objects such as shells of shellfish, cartilage, plants, and other chitinous materials.

Title Fat, Furry, Flexible, and Functionally Important: Characteristics of Mammals Living in the Arctic Type Book
Year 2021 Publication Arctic Ecology Abbreviated Journal
Volume Issue Pages 357-384
Keywords arctic ecosystems Arctic mammals climate change deglaciation food webs homeotherms low mammal species diversity primary production
Abstract Mammals constitute a group of vertebrates that share a number of unique characteristics,such as nursing their young with milk, and having hair. The pattern of low mammal species diversity in the Arctic probably reflects a combination of mainly two driving factors: first, being homeotherms, mammals require a substantial amount of energy to sustain the various life processes, and the arctic regions are characterized by a very low availability of energy due to short seasons for primary production. Secondly, the occurrence of arctic mammals today reflects the reinvasion of the mammal species into the Arctic as the ecosystems were re-established following the deglaciation. This chapter discusses the characteristics of the arctic mammals, including their unique adaptations to life, and their role as both consumer and food base in the arctic ecosystems. Climate change in the Arctic may also alter the interactions within food webs.

Title Approches intégrées en écologie de la conservation des oiseaux marins : cas de l’utilisation d'autovaccins pour la conservation des albatros sur l'île d'Amsterdam Type Thesis
Year 2021 Publication Abbreviated Journal
Volume Issue Pages
Keywords
Abstract L’Albatros à nez jaune de l’océan indien (Thalassarche carteri) est une espèce menacée d’extinction dont la population principale, qui se reproduit sur l’île Amsterdam (Terres Australes et Antarctiques Françaises), connait un déclin et une très forte mortalité des jeunes individus depuis plusieurs décennies. La bactérie responsable du choléra aviaire, Pasteurella multocida, est suspectée comme étant à l'origine de ces mortalités et notre équipe évalue depuis plusieurs années maintenant l'utilisation d'un vaccin pour protéger les poussins, via leur vaccination directe, mais aussi celle des femelles reproductrices susceptibles de transmettre des anticorps protecteurs à leur poussin. Le vaccin utilisé est un vaccin autologue (autovaccin) spécifiquement développé par Ceva-Biovac contre une souche de la bactérie Pasteurella multocida isolée sur cadavre d’albatros. Suite à l’obtention de premiers résultats prometteurs, les objectifs de la thèse étaient d’ajuster le protocole de vaccination, mais également de mieux appréhender et décrire les processus éco-épidémiologiques en jeu au sein des populations de vertébrés de l’île Amsterdam. Ceci a reposé sur l'analyse fine du suivi de couples reproducteurs année après année, mais aussi sur l'utilisation de données éco-épidémiologiques expérimentales complémentaires, notamment une nouvelle formulation du vaccin. Une diversité de pathogènes responsables de mortalités a pu être caractérisée. L’âge optimal de vaccination des poussins parait être vers 10 jours et la vaccination des femelles reproductrices semble pouvoir protéger les poussins pendant plusieurs années, mais la forte densité de rats (Rattus norvegicus) actifs dans les colonies a rendu difficile l’identification d’un effet protecteur fort du vaccin. Les résultats obtenus améliorent la compréhension des mécanismes de circulation d'agents infectieux chez des espèces à reproduction coloniale et permettront de comparer les bénéfices relatifs attendus de différents scénarios de vaccination. Le travail montre l’importance d’intégrer des approches complémentaires, notamment du domaine biomédical et de l’écologie des populations, pour aborder la problématique de l’émergence de maladies infectieuses dans le contexte des changements environnementaux actuels.

Title Caractérisation du comportement alimentaire de l'éléphant de mer Mirounga leonina et liens avec les structures physiques sub-mésoéchelles (1-10km) dans l'océan Austral : une approche par analyse de données fonctionnelles Type Thesis
Year 2021 Publication Thèse de doctorat en Océanographie Abbreviated Journal
Volume Issue Pages
Keywords
Abstract De nombreuses questions restent en suspens quant aux relations existantes entre les processus biologiques et physiques dans l'océan Austral. Pour répondre à ces questions, des enregistreurs électroniques sont déployés sur des prédateurs marins, et notamment sur des éléphants de mer austraux. Ces enregistreurs échantillonnent une grande variété de données physiques, biologies ou comportementales à haute fréquence générant ainsi une quantité considérable d’information. L’ensemble de ces données sont dites fonctionnelles car elles présentent un caractère commun : elles évoluent selon un continuum, qu’il soit spatial ou temporel. L’objectif de cette thèse est donc double, il s’agit d’étudier l’activité alimentaire de femelles éléphant de mer en relation avec les processus physiques de l’océan austral, tout en intégrant le caractère fonctionnel des données échantillonnées. Les résultats obtenus montrent que (1) par rapport aux méthodes classiquement employées, les méthodes d’analyse de données fonctionnelles permettent d’identifier une plus grande variété de comportements de plongées au sens biologique défini. (2) Ces approches fonctionnelles sont plus adaptées pour des données aux fréquences d’échantillonnage variable. (3) L’analyse de données fonctionnelles nous permet également d’accéder à la densité de nos individus, reflet de leur condition corporelle, et les comportements de plongées qu’ils adoptent ont une influence réelle sur cette condition corporelle, à différentes échelles de temps. (4) Il existe une relation entre les caractéristiques des masses d’eau rencontrées par les femelles éléphants de mer et les plongées qu’elles effectuent.

Abstract Since The Signature Of The Minamata Convention On Mercury In 2017, National Regulation Coordinated At An International Level Will Come Into Force In Order To Limit Anthropogenic Emissions And Therefore Protect The Human Health And Ecosystem From This Highly Toxic Pollutant. One Need To Evaluate The Efficiency Of National Measures, And Long-term Monitoring Of Atmospheric Mercury (Hg) Is An Important Tool To Address The Changes Over Time Of Emission Sources, Transport, And Deposition Patterns.the Global Mercury Observation System (Gmos) Project Was Funded By The European Commission (Http://www.gmos.eu) And Started In November 2010 With The Overall Goal To Develop A Coordinated Global Observing System To Monitor Hg On A Global Scale, Including A Large Network Of Ground-based Monitoring Stations. To Date, More Than 40 Ground-based Monitoring Sites Constitute The Global Network Covering Many Regions Where Little To No Observational Data Were Available Before Gmos (Sprovieri Et Al., 2016). All Gmos Work Is Now Continued In The Framework Of The International Frame Work Of Gos4m (Global Observation System For Mercury – Http://www.gos4m.org)although Essential To Fully Understand The Cycling Of Mercury At The Global Scale, Mercury Species Records In The Southern Hemisphere Were Really Scarce Before Gmos. In This Context, An Atmospheric Mercury Monitoring Station Has Been Set Up On Amsterdam Island (37◦48 S, 77◦34 E) In The Remote Southern Indian Ocean In 2012. Since 2012, We Continuously Measured Gaseous Mercury Species With A 15 Min Frequency. Angot Et Al. (2014) Discussed The First Two Years Of This Record, Using Principally Wind Sector Analysis And Air Mass Back Trajectories. They Also Include In Their Analysis The Unique Continuous Record Of Radon 222 And 220 (Thoron) (Polian Et Al., 1986; Kritz Et Al., 1990). Radon 222 And 220 (Thoron) Activities Can Be Used To Distinguish Local Soil Outgassing From Remote Continental Source. Combined With Meteorological Data, The Change Of Activities Are Then Powerful Tool To Classify Air Mass Origin For The Atmospheric Gaseous Mercury Record. Rapid And Sharp Variations Of Radon 222 Activity, Referred To As &Ldquo;radonic Storms” (Lambert Et Al., 1970) And Ascribed To Strong Continental Air Mass Advection, Are Then Observed At Amsterdam Island. The Occurrence Of Radonic Storms Was Estimated To Be About 4 % In 2012 And 7 % In 2013. Considering The Works Realized In 2014, The Goal Of This Internship Is To Deeper Explore The Relationships Between The Collected Gaseous Elemental Mercury And Observed Radon (222rn / 220rn) Activities In The Entire Data Set. In Particular, We Will Study The Specific And Coupled Trend Of These Compounds, The Frequency And Intensity Of Radonic Storm Occurrence And Their Potential Link With The Gaseous Elemental Mercury Cycle. Local Meteorology Data As Well As Backtrajectories Simulation (Hysplit And/or Flexpart Model) Will Be Also Used.
