MICROREFUGIA: Behavioural responses and adaptations of grassland birds to environmental and climate change.

The main objective of this project is to develop long-term conservation strategies for one of the most threatened groups of terrestrial vertebrates in Europe, grassland birds. This will be achieved through an in depth, mechanistic understanding of their behavioural responses to climate and environmental changes.
