Research groups under the Biodiversity, Biogeography and Conservation programme
The Biodiversity, Biogeography and Conservation programme studies the species diversity and regional distribution of groups of organisms as well as changes in species. Projects explore threats arising from, for example, species loss, the spread of invasive alien species and climate change. A variety of methods specific to both field and laboratory research are used, allowing the adaptation of organisms to be studied, for example, by performing experimental work, exploring long observation series or using a modelling approach.
