Abstract: |
The main research interest of the Behavioural Ecology and Ecophysiology (BECO) group is the study of the causes and consequences of variation in behavioural traits among individuals. A major challenge in biology is to understand the interactions between an organism and its environment. Behaviour resides in the central core of this association as it affects and is affected by development, physiology, ecological dynamics, environmental choice, and evolution. Therefore, behaviour can be considered as a key component of integrative biology in a human-altered world. The research group studies behaviour from four perspectives (mechanisms, development, adaptive function, phylogeny) simultaneously, thus using an integrative and interdisciplinary framework and applies theoretical and methodological insights from animal behaviour and behavioural ecology to conservation biology and global change biology. The overarching aim of BECO's research is to explain and ideally predict how individuals and species respond behaviourally to human-induced rapid environmental change. Most research is on terrestrial birds, although an increasing number of studies is focusing on marine species. With regard to marine research, reproduction and foraging ecology is studied in several gull species and magnificent frigatebirds using both field observations/ experiments and GPS tracking technologies. The group also studies the role of different seabird species as biomonitors of pollution and environmental change. Within this context, the group explores both indicators and consequences of exposure, including immune function, endocrinology, reproduction, and the expression of visual and acoustic traits. Special attention is being paid to the use of bird feathers as a non-destructive indicator of both exposure to and effects (stress hormones) of pollutants. Using archived museum feather collections, temporal trends in a wide range of pollutants are being studied. |
