Intégration du lien consommateur-ressource dans l'étude de l'influence des activités humaines sur l'hivernage des bernaches cravant dans un écosystème littoral fortement anthropisé
Human activities can modify animal behaviour and distribution which ultimately can have a significant effect at the population level. For migratory species, a site may become unsuitable for wintering due to high levels of disturbance. As a consequence, individuals will winter on other sites, increas...

Human activities can modify animal behaviour and distribution which ultimately can have a significant effect at the population level. For migratory species, a site may become unsuitable for wintering due to high levels of disturbance. As a consequence, individuals will winter on other sites, increasing the level of interference and potentially decreasing feeding efficiency. However, to well estimate the influence of human activities on wintering species, food resources have to be taken into account. The aim of this work was to account for the link between consumer and food resource when studying the influence of human activities on wintering Brent geese Branta bernicla. The study area was in South Brittany (France), where Brent geese feed mainly on eelgrass species such as Zostera noltii. We characterised the relationship between the distribution of Brent geese and Z. noltii at three spatial and temporal scales. We found that food resources determined Brent geese distribution, from the broad scale of the gulf during thirty years to the position in relation to tide edge during a tidal cycle.
