My current research also makes use of technological advancements for the acquisition of biologically-meaningful data to be used for conservation.
In this case I am using time-lapse imagery from camera-trap data in order to monitor the breeding ecology of penguin colonies all over the Antarctic Peninsula and Subantarctic Islands.
The plan is to not only study penguins from a conservation perspective but also to include their behavioural ecology in order to understand how can the different threats impact their populations.
