Jan 11, 2022 · The first one documented the dugongs’ movement extent, heterogeneity and core areas of use in coral reef lagoon ecosystems 35 and the other investigated the use of a mining port and its vicinity by tagged animals 74. Details of the capture process, animal sexing and measurements can be found in those publications.

Jan 11, 2022 · In this study, the spatio-temporal habitat use dynamics of the vulnerable dugong (Dugong dugon) were modelled from 16 satellite-tagged individuals in the coral reef lagoonal ecosystems of New ...
The use of the coral reef lagoons by the dugongs reflected each lagoon’s size and depth. Dugongs spent most of their tracked time within the lagoons, with 99.4% of GPS fixes located inside the barrier reef. In Nouméa, dugongs ranged over large areas and used the water depth gradient of the lagoon evenly.
