  1. 1. Turning Night into Day : Does Skyglow affect Bat Activity and Timing of Emergence?

    Master-uppsats, Stockholms universitet/Institutionen för naturgeografi

    Författare :Torge Gerwin; [2023]
    Nyckelord :Skyglow; Bats; Light pollution; Bat activity; Bat emergence; Riparian forest; Landscape composition; Multi-scale landscape; Landscape management; Sweden;

    Sammanfattning : Artificial brightness of the night sky caused by the backscatter of artificial light in the atmosphere is a consequence of ongoing urbanization. Skyglow covers 88 % of Europe’s surface and poses significant threats to biodiversity. Extensive research on responses of bats to direct light pollution already revealed significant impacts. LÄS MER

  3. 2. Bats as indicators of habitat connectivity in urban environments

    Kandidat-uppsats, SLU/Dept. of Urban and Rural Development

    Författare :Linnéa Sundberg; [2022]
    Nyckelord :Bats; Sweden; light; fragmentation; connectivity; urban; Myotis; Myotis brandtii;

    Sammanfattning : Human disturbances to natural environments have been an increasing issue since the industrial revolution when the human population started to grow faster than ever before. Habitats have been extensively lost, followed by severe consequences on biodiversity. LÄS MER

  4. 3. Using the AudioMoth - a novel passive acoustic monitoring technology - to monitor bat diversity in a rewilded landscape

    Master-uppsats, SLU/Dept. of Wildlife, Fish and Environmental Studies

    Författare :Koen Pronk; [2022]
    Nyckelord :passive acoustic monitoring; bioindicator; chiroptera; audioMoth; trophic rewilding;

    Sammanfattning : Ecosystem restoration through the reintroduction of grazers is gaining interest across Europe. Large herbivores are associated with landscape heterogeneity, restoration of trophic cascades and biodiversity. LÄS MER

  5. 4. Sexually segregated habitat selection in Daubenton’s bat Myotis daubentonii

    Master-uppsats, SLU/Dept. of Wildlife, Fish and Environmental Studies

    Författare :Esnart Emma Bwalya Chibwe; [2021]
    Nyckelord :sexual segregation; Daubenton’s bat; Myotis daubentonii; landscape analysis; habitat selection; foraging;

    Sammanfattning : Sexual segregation is a phenomenon present in many vertebrate taxa, including the bat order Chiroptera. Sexual segregation is a social and/or habitat separation based on sex and is driven by varying causes such as sexual dimorphism, resource and physiological limitations, predator avoidance and many other factors.

  7. 5. Bats as hosts of zoonotic pathogens : potential conflicts between nature conservation and public health

    Master-uppsats, SLU/Dept. of Wildlife, Fish and Environmental Studies

    Författare :Therese Thalin; [2021]
    Nyckelord :bats; conservation; Daubenton’s bat; Myotis daubentonii; public health; vector; zoonotic pathogens;

    Sammanfattning : Bats belong to the order Chiroptera, one of the most species rich mammalian groups of Sweden, but it is also the most threatened one. Nineteen different bat species have been found in Sweden, of which 12 are red-listed. Globally rodents and bats are the animal groups known to host most zoonotic pathogens. LÄS MER
