APELAFICO/SATURN/BIOCLOCK
In the NWO-NWA funded APELAFICO- and BIOCLOCK-projects and the EU HORIZON 2020 funded SATURN-project, we study Urban Ecology of Marine and Aquatic environments. We investigate the impact of noise and light pollution on fish behaviour. The three projects focus on the acoustic ecology of pelagic fish at offshore windfarms (APELAFICO with Jeroen Hubert & Fien Demuynck), the impact on behaviour and physiology of artificial light at night (ALAN) on diurnal and seasonal cycles of migratory fishes...
