| Abstract ENG | Purpurea project aims to investigate the movement ecology of purple herons Ardea purpurea during the whole life cycle. The purple heron is a threatened species, that establish colonies in the well-conserved wetlands through over Europe and overwinters in sub-Saharan Africa. By the means of miniaturized GPS/GSM devices installed on purple herons breeding in different wetlands of Europe, the project aims to explore behavioural parameters (feeding ecology, timing and performance of migration) and relation with land use elements (habitat selection, home range size, pre-migratory movements). Our results will shed light on the ecology of a poorly studied group of species and will produce suggestions for more effective targeted conservation actions. |
