Ecology

Study site and plant material Studies were performed on a ridge (36°4′N, 138°20′E, 2,226 m above sea level) of the upper subalpine region of the northern Yatsugatake Mountains in central Japan during the winter of 2006–2007. This site experiences strong westerly winds, especially during the winter months. The ground surface remains covered with snow from early […] More

Data collection Bats were encountered in day roosts within SchweglerTM woodcrete boxes distributed across our study site, Wytham Woods (51°77′N, 1°33′W) or caught at night in mist nets and harp traps in the same locality. All catching, handling and ringing of bats was carried out under project licence from Natural England (2018-36143-SCI-SCI and preceding licences). […] More
