At Goethe University Frankfurt and Senckenberg, we study how animals move through and interact with changing environments, and what these movements mean for populations, ecosystems, and biodiversity conservation. We combine behavioral ecology, movement ecology, wildlife biology, remote sensing, field studies, and quantitative modeling to link individual decisions and social interactions with large-scale movement patterns, ecosystem functions, and conservation challenges. Our work spans theoretical and applied questions, from navigation, learning, and behavioral diversity to the effects of human activities on wildlife and the development of science-based approaches for biodiversity conservation in a rapidly changing world.
