The world is changing at an unprecedented rate, and organisms have to adapt to these changing circumstances or they will perish. The loss of biodiversity is thus partly due to the inability of species to adapt to changing circumstances. The mission of the Conservation Ecology Group is to study how organisms are affected by these changing environmental conditions: whether and by what means can they adjust, how are population numbers affected, and under what conditions is community resilience maintained. We do so by studying natural populations and communities in the field, by long-term monitoring, and with focused field experiments. The fundamental understanding of adaptive processes in their ecological context helps to improve conservation, and we actively stimulate our work to be used in the public arena.
Our ecological research contributes to actual conservation in the following ways:
