Engineer | Acoustic telemetry

Koffiabout-Samy

As part of a one-year fixed-term contract (renewable) as a research engineer, I work with the EABX unit and the FREEMA team on the migration of the European sturgeon (A. sturio).

My main tasks consist of monitoring this critically endangered species using acoustic telemetry. As such, I participate in STURAT campaigns, during which potentially reproductive individuals are captured, tagged and then released. I am also responsible for installing, maintaining and retrieving data from hydrophones, which are arranged in a network to track the passage of sturgeons in the Gironde, Garonne and Dordogne estuaries.
