   May 10, 2022 · Tracking studies have shown that dugongs modify their movements and habitat use of the bay during winter in response to seasonal changes in water temperature , alternately foraging on seagrass flats in cooler bay waters and moving offshore to thermoregulate in warmer oceanic waters immediately outside the bay (Preen 1992; Zeh et al. 2018).

   Nov 1, 2018 · The dugongs' individual activity spaces generally declined as winter progressed suggesting a change in the cost-effectiveness of moving outside the bay. Our analysis adds to the evidence that dugongs undertake behavioural thermoregulation at least at the high latitude limits of their range.

   How do dugongs cope with winter water temperatures?

   • Nonetheless, with morphological and physiological limitations to their thermoregulatory capacity similar to those of manatees, dugongs are also likely to have developed behavioural adaptations to cope with winter water temperatures at the higher latitude limits to their range.

   Do Dugongs use space in subtropical Australia?

   • We GPS‐tracked seven dugongs within a 24 km 2, intensively used seagrass habitat in subtropical Australia in winter. We modeled resource selection within the habitat by comparing the dugongs’ use of space with the distribution of seagrass in an area defined using the combined space‐use of the tracked animals.

   Do dugongs move outside South Passage?

   • Oceanic waters outside South Passage do not support seagrass meadows and were up to 5.5 °C warmer in winter suggesting that dugongs move outside the protected inshore bay habitats to access warmer waters. Cleguer (2015) documented similar movements for dugongs at another high latitude limit to their range in New Caledonia.

   Climate Change Affects Dugong Distribution and Habitat Availability. This hypothesis proposes that climate change-induced factors such as sea level rise, ocean temperature changes, and altered weather patterns could impact seagrass habitats and consequently influence dugong distribution. Research might focus on how dugongs
