How will greening the desert affect bats and the ecosystem services they provide? Supervisors: Dr Orly Razgour (University of Southampton) Dr Kelvin Peh (University of Southampton)
Read MoreAdaptations to environmental change
Using genomic data and ecological analysis to identify signatures of climate-driven local adaptations in species of conservation concern.
Read MorePredictive Landscape Genetics
We use landscape genetics as a predictive tool to assess how species will shift their ranges to track changes in climatic suitability and inform conservation measures that will facilitate movement.
Read MoreEcological connectivity in sky island bats of the Ethiopian Highlands
Tropical highland ecosystems are highly sensitive to global change, especially in under-studied areas like Ethiopia that are threatened by extensive anthropogenic habitat loss and degradation. We are studying how these sky islands and the intervening landscape matrix shape the genetic diversity and distribution of their unique fauna, focusing on the little known diversity of the Ethiopian Highlands’ Plecotus bat community.
