Jubiläumsredner


Dr. Roseline C. Beudels-Jamar:
Protecting Sahelian Antelopes



Dr. Roseline C. Beudels-Jamar is currently with the Conservation Biology section of the Royal Institute of Natural Science of Belgium. She is mostly involved with research and studies related to threatened species, detection of species and populations at risk, their evolutionary history, biogeography, eco-ethology and trends, the prediction of the dynamics and extinction risks of smallpopulations, the development of data collection methodologies adapted to vulnerable species, in particular,individualmarking, identification and monitoring techniques, to the design and implementation of restorationprogrammes. She has been involved with migratory species conservation for the last 10 years through the work of the CMS Scientific Council, within she actss as the focal point for the Sahelo-Saharan Antelopes CMS concerted action.

Conserving migratory marine birds with the Bonn Convention and its daughter agreements: sucesses to date and ways forward


He is a Chief Research Officer in the Avian Demography Unit, University of Cape Town. He has studies the biology of seabirds for over thirty years in southern Africa and in the sub-Antarctic, but now concentrates on policy research an conservation issues. John Cooper is especially interested in supporting initiatives by internatinal bodies to improve the status of threatened seabirds and their habitats on global scale. To this end he has worked with the Bonn Convention on Migratory Species and its Agreements, as well as with the Food and Agriculture Organization of the United Nations, the Commission for the Conservation of Antarctic Marine Living Resources, the Scientific Committee on Antarctic Research and the World Conservation Union.

Prof. Dr. Boris Culik:
Albatrosses, penguins, whales and turtles: wanderer of the oceans



Er studierte Toronto, Kanada Biologie. Im Rahmen seiner Diplomarbeit galt sein Interesse der Wolfsspinne "Geolycosa domifex", ihrem Verhalten und Energiebedarf. Nach seiner Rückkehr nach München arbeitete Culik 1980 zunächst als Pharmaberater. Im Frühjahr 1982 hörte er erstmals von der Deutschen Antarktisforschung und stellte sich am Kieler Institut für Meereskunde vor. Seither beschäftigte er sich mit Pinguinen und Walen. Während er sich in seiner Doktorarbeit noch mit einem ökotoxikologischen Thema befasste,der Fluoridbelastung krillfressender Pinguine, untersuchte er in seiner Habilitationsschrift das Verhalten und den Energiebedarf von antarktischen Pinguinen. In den letzten Jahren hat Prof. Culik die Pinguine allerdings etwas aus den Augen verloren: jetzt untersucht er das Verhalten von Walen, genauer gesagt von Schweinswalen. Sie leben an den deutschen Küsten und sind vor allem durch Netze, zum Beispiel Treib- und Stellnetze und durch Großbaustellen der Offshore-Windindustrie gefährdet. Culiks Doktoranden widmen sich den Grauwalen vor der mexikanischen Küste und den Tümmlern vor Chile. Auch hier sind jedoch die Auswirkungen des Menschen, die Umweltveränderungen und Störungen Thema der Untersuchungen. Prof. Culik ist Autor von über 100 Veröffentlichungen, hat 5 Bücher über Pinguine verfasst, darunter ein Was-ist-was Buch für Kinder und hat mehrere Stunden original Filmaufnahmen seiner Expeditionen in TV-Dokumentarsendungen gezeigt. Auf der Internetseite der „Convention on Migratory Species“ ist Culiks letzte Publikation zu finden, ein über 300 Seiten starke Enzyklopädie der Kleinwale, ihrer Verbreitung, ihres Wanderverhaltens und ihrer Bedrohung. Prof. Culik hat über 20 Expeditionen in die Antarktis, nach Chile, Mexiko und Kanada durchgeführt um Pinguine, Wale und Schweinswale vor Ort zu studieren. Seine Bilder und Ergebnisse hat er in über 100 Vorträgen auf Konferenzen und vor interessierten Laien an Land und auf See vorgestellt.

Dr. Rainer Froese:
Why a fish? An Example of Sucessful Usage of the Internet


He is senior scientist at the Leibniz Institute of Marinen Science, Kiel. After a first professional career as nautical officer with the German merchant navy -including a licence to steer ships on all ocenas- he began studying Biology in 1977 at Hamburg University, obtained his Masters degree in 1985 at Kiel University and received his doctorate in Fisheries Biology in 1990 from Hamburg University. He has authored or co-authored over 100 scientific publications dealing with fish and fisheries, and increasingly also with biodiversity of fish and other groups. Sicne 1990 heis the coordinator of FishBase, a large information system on all fishes of the world ( www.fishbase.org). FishBase is currently the most widely used biological information system, with more than 12 million hits per month, and it thus provides insights on what users may expect from similar initatives. Rainer Froese was member of the Species 2000 management team (www.sp2000.org), where he designed and produced the now annual"Catalogue of Live" CD-ROM. Since June 2001 he is a member of the International Committee of the Ocean Biogeographic Informatin System (OBIS). In 2003 he received the prestigious Pew Marine Conservation Fellwoship Award.

Birgit Gerkmann:
Satellite and remote-sensing data for the identification


During a one-year stay in Santa Cruz, Bolivia, she worked on her diploma thesis about problems of biodiversity conservation in Bolivia caused by the expanding oil industry. Adjacently she worked with Geograhical Systems within the project "Global Register of Migratory Species" (www.groms.de). In 2003 she started her PhD thesis at the Alexander Koenig Research Insitute in Bonn about application of satellite telemetry and remote sensing technology for the conservation of migratory birds.

Dr. Klaus Riede:
Why is it that knowing so much we can do so little?



Klaus Riede studied zoology and biocybernetics in Frankfurt and Tuebingen. After his dissertation in Zoology he studied the species-rich grasshopper fauna of South America. He continued field studies in Malaysia, combining them with neuroethological laboratory experiments about hearing physiology in Orthoptera. Since 1997, he designed and managed the "Global Register of Migratory Species" ( www.groms.de) at the Museum Koenig, Bonn, in close cooperation with the Bonn Secretariat of the UNEP Convention on Migratory Species (CMS), and with funds from the German ministry of the Environment.
