Day 2 of #CapacityBuilding workshop. We talked monitoring approaches for #Marine #Biodiversity. We tested the transects prepared by NGOs participants ... And 🤯 found an #hawksbill #turtle swimming in the bay! Great day all around. Thank you all. Let's get ready for day3!

Please RT! The position is ideal for #candidates experienced in piloting #drones that have an interest in #conservation. Based on our field camp, you'll strengthen your piloting skills whilst learning about #seaturtle #conservation practices! #drone #uav #uas #marineconservation

This cheeky-looking fella is a red-billed tropicbird. Check out his bright red bill and long white tail! There is a large population nesting on Sal, Cabo Verde, that was only recently discovered! Find out how Project Biodiversity is trying to protect them: dw.com/en/discovering…

Our community clean up partners, Project Biodiversity Project Biodiversity, in Cabo Verde 🇨🇻 cleaning up Costa Fragata, Sal Island and collecting 417.8 lbs of beach garbage as apart of the HEY Global Oceans & Coastal Clean Up by @Theashleylashl1 ! #beachclean #cleanup #community

During the nesting season, #loggerheadturtles can produce hundreds of eggs but invest nothing in parental care- hatchlings must survive on their own! 🌊🐢🥚 Very different from humans and a fascinating reminder of the diverse #reproductivestrategies that exist

For the 14th season, the #TurtleProject is in #CaboVerde to help protect #seaturtle with Project Biodiversity Turtle Foundation Associação Projecto Vitó FMB - Maio Biodiversity Foundation and many others. This year we focus on in situ sex determination. QM_SBBS Queen Mary University of London

To understand the mechanisms of sex determination we use #genomics and #epigenomics tools. We identified genes that are different between sexes at birth to use them as biomarkers. With those, we can now address the impact of warming on population viability. Project Biodiversity

Today I gave our yearly talk on the #TurtleProject at the Project Biodiversity camp. Always so much fun and great to recognise the strong interaction between scientists and conservationists. #Seaturtles #Sal #CaboVerde QM_SBBS Queen Mary University of London Queen Mary Centre for Public Engagement

Very happy to release a series of pre-print on our #seaturtle project. #1 is from Dr Leila Fouda's PhD. biorxiv.org/content/10.110… Using #stableisotopes we show that not all feeding grounds are equally good for turtles

Today is the Africa Regional Meeting with superb representation from #CaboVerde Project Biodiversity Turtle Foundation. Feeling honoured to present our affordable technical solutions for #tracking #drone and #DNAMethylation for #SeaTurtle Queen Mary University of London QM_SBBS #ISTS42
