“To develop sound bird conservation policies and to implement effective conservation and mitigation measures, it is increasingly urgent to fully understand the dynamics of bird populations, and how bird survival, reproduction and population trends are affected by anthropogenic changes.” Read more
Dr. Janske van de Crommenacker – BirdLife Netherlands
“In my work on movement and population ecology of waterfowl, I try to scale up from processes acting at the individual level to patterns observable at the population level. In doing so, I try to bridge the gap between fundamental and applied research.” Read more
Prof. dr. Bart A. Nolet – NIOO
“Together with researchers within CAPS I work on habitat selection, food ecology, energy management, population dynamics and migratory behavior of birds. Within CAPS there is extensive experience with inventories, ring research, radio telemetry, radar studies on migration and flight behavior, sampling of food supply, ecophysiology and energetics.” Read more
Dr. Hans Schekkerman – Sovon
“The main focus of my research is the impact of environmental drivers on spatial population dynamics. I want to understand how ecological and evolutionary processes at the individual level integrate and scale-up to population dynamics”. Read more
