23.06.2009: The research project “Habitat and threat assessment as a basis for the protection of the globally threatened Aquatic Warbler Acrocephalus paludicola in its wintering grounds in the Djoudj National Park area, Senegal” is being realised by Cosima Tegetmeyer (diploma landscape ecologist. University of Greifswald, Germany) at the only current known Aquatic Warbler wintering site located in the Djoudj area in Senegal. A landscape-ecological analysis of the habitats is carried out in this PhD study. The aim is to identify key factors of habitat choice of the Aquatic Warbler in Africa. The results will further help to develop adequate management measures for preservation of designated Aquatic Warbler habitats and to eventually find further wintering grounds in Western Africa.

The Aquatic warbler is a globally threatened bird species. We would like to make you familiar with the Aquatic Warbler on this home page. We also would like to show you what we are doing for the conservation of the Aquatic Warbler. |
