Bayreuth researchers work interdisciplinarily on the elucidation of the Asian tiger mosquito

Climate change promotes the settlement of non-native mosquitoes and pathogens in Bavaria. Scientists at the University of Bayreuth are working on an interdisciplinary project to develop a warning system that will provide different behavioural recommendations and protective measures for the population depending on the risk. The focus is on the West Nile virus, which can be transmitted by domestic mosquito species, and the Chikungunya virus, which can be transmitted by the Asian tiger mosquito.

New study by the University of Bayreuth examines ways to expand nature conservation in the EU

Preserving endangered and typical habitats in Europe with their biodiversity is the goal of Natura 2000, a network of nature reserves established by the EU. By 2030, EU member states want to significantly expand this network. A new biogeographical study by the University of Bayreuth published in the "Journal for Nature Conservation" shows: Expanding Natura 2000 sites in financially weaker EU member states to immediately neighbouring regions can be an effective strategy for increasing species and landscape conservation. Natural habitats in these regions are rarely diminished by settlements and economic infrastructure.

Environmental impacts of mountain biking

Mountain biking is one of the most popular leisure activities today. Sport ecologists at the University of Bayreuth have now compiled and evaluated a wide range of previously published findings on the ecological consequences of this sport. Numerous direct and short-term effects on animals, plants and soils can be clearly demonstrated. However, estimates of long-term consequences remain difficult because of the complexity of ecosystems and their inherent dynamics. The review article was published in the journal "Global Ecology and Conservation".

Ecological-Botanical Garden is a hotspot for wild bees in Central Europe

214 wild bee species, and thus a little more than 40 per cent of the bee species found in Bavaria, were detected last year in the Ecological-Botanical Garden of the University of Bayreuth as part of a master's thesis. Among them were four species threatened with extinction, such as Ammobates punctatus, as well as numerous other endangered species.

A Milestone for Ecosystem Research: Artificial Intelligence in Wildlife Monitoring

In Veldensteiner Forst, one of the largest forest areas in Bavaria, recreational sports, tourism, the timber industry and nature conservation are in close proximity. Researchers from sport ecology at BayCEER / University of Bayreuth, LMU Munich and the Bavarian State Institute of Forestry are working on artificial intelligence software that, in conjunction with high-tech cameras, will provide information about the interactions between wildlife and people in the forest. Native wildlife will be automatically recognized and classified.
