Assessing the Impact of Climate Change on the Distribution and Behavior of Wildlife Species. MSC

Abstract:
This research project aims to assess the impact of climate change on the distribution and behavior of wildlife species. Climate change is altering ecosystems worldwide, leading to shifts in temperature, precipitation patterns, and habitat availability. These changes can have profound effects on wildlife, including changes in species distribution, migration patterns, reproductive behavior, and interactions with other species. The study will focus on evaluating the ecological and behavioral responses of wildlife to climate change, using a combination of field observations, remote sensing data, and modeling approaches. By understanding the impacts of climate change on wildlife, valuable insights can be gained to inform conservation strategies and mitigate the negative effects of climate change on biodiversity.
