Ecology of Animal Migration

Activiteit: Participation in workshop, seminar

Description

Two-week course on a number of different approaches and methods to study the migration of birds, insects, fish, amphibians and mammals, ranging from experimental studies in the laboratory to tracking long-distance migration in wild animals. Lectures are given by international authorities in the field as well as by researchers in the CAnMove Group at Lund University covering topics such as locomotion, bird ringing, migration and dispersal, orientation and navigation, ecophysiology, genetics of migration, migration and conservation, and modelling migration. In addition to lectures, there is time for own projects, an excursion to the bird migration station at Falsterbo, demonstrations of bird ringing and orientation experiments as well as tracking and radar techniques (university field station at Stensoffa). Own graduate projects are presented orally.
