  2. Flocks from Above: Studying Geese with Drones (MSc project)

    Internship
    In spring, brent and barnacle geese gather in the Wadden Sea to build up energy reserves for their migration to Arctic breeding grounds. Both share similar resources and rely on comparable habitats during this fuelling period. This overlap suggests that competition between them may play an important role. To understand potential consequences, it is essential, yet unexplored, to study how the species interact. As a first step, this project aims to examine flock composition, distribution, and dynamics of both species.

  3. Community-wide micro-evolutionary adaptation to anthropogenic stress: context dependency and ecological implications (COMADAPT)

    Project 2023–2027
    Considering rapid evolutionary responses is key to a better understanding of the long-term effects of stressors on natural systems. In this COMADAPT project we explicitly adopt a community-wide perspective.

  5. Arctic-bound birds can still keep up with climate change – for now

    Press release
    As climate change drives earlier spring conditions in the Arctic, birds species that travel there to breed there are under pressure to migrate faster. A new study led by researchers from the University of Amsterdam and the Netherlands Institute of Ecology reveals that many Arctic-breeding waterfowl still have some flexibility when it comes to speeding up their migrations. However, this strategy may only work for a limited time.
