Functional connectivity in vertebrate populations under global change: simulation of impacts and mitigation measures (2023) - Funded by Regional government of Valencia, Spain (I+D+i desarrollados por grupos de investigación emergentes, Comunitat Valenciana)

Project leader: MV Jiménez Franco

Scientists involved from our team : Y Bourgeois

Summary: This project aims at characterizing the impact of anthropic changes on the dispersal abilities of the Greek Tortoise (Testudo graeca) in South-Eastern Spain. Using a combination of tracking, simulations and population genetic analyses, we will obtain a detailed assessment of the threats on this isolated population.
