Extra CAnMove seminar 16 Sept at 11.00h in Communis

Hi All,

Extra CAnMove seminar:

Masters student Tom Evans from York University will present his project on: The foraging behavior of common guillemots at Stora Karlsö.

Tom has used new technology to track the foraging movements with GPS-loggers and monitored the diving behavior with TDRs (time-depth-recorders) in common guillemots during breeding season 2009 at Stora Karlsö. The work has been done at the newly installed artificial ledge and is a collaboration with CAnMove (S. Åkesson) and Stockholm University and Stockholm Recilience Centre (Olof Olsson) and the Baltic Seabird Group (Jonas Sundberg).

The seminar will be given 16 September 11.00-12.00h in Communis (3rd floor).

You are All very Welcome!

Susanne Åkesson

CANMOVE-meeting Tuesday 26 May at 15.00

Tomorrow (Tuesday 26 May 2009), our two recently hired research engineers Johan Bäckman and Arne Andersson will introduce themselves and tell about their background and future plans.

Johan and Anders have been hired by CANMOVE to help researchers active in this consortium to develop new technological solutions to the problems of marking individuals, particularly small organisms like Daphnia, insect or other small invertebrates.

Thus, our two new highly qualified research engineers will be helpful to all senior researchers, postdocs and Ph.D.-students which are directly or indirectly associated with CANMOVE.

Time: Tuesday 26 May 2009, at 15.00
Where: "Tanken" (seminar room for the Limnology Section, at 1st floor in the Ecology Building).
