hello everyone
my research deals with back heuristics of penguins and statistics
if a cute little paying when you have about a twenty percent chance of surviving
your first and then about and eighty percent chance of surviving each after that to
in your about eleven
you start a family when you're about three and you have to make sure agreed
in a home regularly or your family runaway was still start today
you have unpredictable weather apprentices unpredictable food supply to contend with and researches are really
mean interested to know how you call
why
because you aren't operators to and what happens to you gives us a window into
what is happening twelve marine ecosystems as it's trying to cope with a change in
climate and if is where the statistics comes in
it is the tool i use to extract out anything like stories from pain wouldn't
data
i use a truly remarkable dataset from phillip island in victoria of fifty four and
half a dozen due to penguins and they use a probability based statistical to call
the method of maximum likelihood and i don't penguin survival with climate an auction variables
the techniques i use a novel
and i can now models of bible for any wildlife species
so some pain when was that well rising temperatures is and strong when events do
affecting survival we kind of expected that about me the expects its first able it
i salute me matches what time of year these events happened and secondly
these events don't actually always have a detrimental effect if it can be beneficial as
well and that it and most intriguing that happens to be some evidence of lag
effect for example strong winds blowing in the winter for the breeding season have a
positive affect
on chicks the bible
have
the following year
well a possible mechanism is that means of low fit into the feeding grounds and
the parents a healthier and so they can have help future
and there's so much more to look at
a temperature rainfall patterns of current ice melting thousands of kilometres away and most importantly
marin productivity because it tells us how much food is available
so
the curious mix of penguins and statistics
can teachers so much about out cherished real environment and i well let's hope that
ruffle wild adventures in a healthy environment because there is no doubt if their environment
as healthy so is out planets thank you
