1 Energetics of Ningaloo Green Turtles Jessica Stubbs, Nicki Mitchell, Mat Vanderklift, Sabrina Fossette-Halot, Richard Pillans, Nina Marn, and Starrlight Augustine Ningaloo Outlook A partnership between BHP and CSIRO WESTERN COASTAL/OCEAN & ATMOSPHERE Ningaloo Outlook is a BHP-CSIRO Industry-Science Marine Research Partnership investing A$5.4 million over five years to gather new knowledge on the Ningaloo reef and its important ecological values
2 Green turtles at Ningaloo Form part of globally significant population Most research and monitoring focussed on nesting environment Foraging ecology and energetics of Ningaloo population Response to changing conditions Dynamic Energy Budget model 2
3 Project Aims 1. Investigate the diet and variation in diet of Ningaloo green turtles 2. Quantify aspects of developmental energetics of Ningaloo green turtles 3. Develop a Dynamic Energy Budget (DEB) model for green turtles 4. Assess the influence of temperature and food availability on aspects of Ningaloo green turtle energetics via DEB theory 3
