EFFECTS OF LOW AND MEDIUM TRAFFIC ROADS ON BAT ACTIVITY AND SPECIES RICHNESS
Interview with Denis Medinas (Research Center in Biodiversity and Genetic Resources - Portugal)
IENE 2016 conference (Lyon,France)
This study highlights the negative effects of low traffic roads on bat activity and diversity. We also show that not all bats species are affected in the same way and that species that depend more on hearing are particularly prone to activity reductions near the roads. Implications for road management aiming to reduce its impacts on bats are discussed.
