This Concept Map, created with IHMC CmapTools, has information related to: Vannesa's Addition, Artifical Selection Fast flying bats Continue to forrage and may thrive due to congregation of insects around light posts, How does artificial light affect the physiology and behaviour of bats, and what are the impacts? Artifical Zeitgeber induces: Disrutpion of Circadian Rhythm, Disrutpion of Circadian Rhythm Causes Disruption of regulatory processes, metabolism, immune system, Decrease in activity, especially near urban centers For affected areas: Decrease in predation, increase in prey species population, Avoid lit areas, possibly from avoiding exposure to predation. Lit plants forraged less Decrease in dispersal of pioneering plants from bat droppings to lit areas, Decrease in predation, increase in prey species population Deplete food sources Loss of diversity or decrease in establishment of ecological niches, How does artificial light affect the physiology and behaviour of bats, and what are the impacts? Disrupts access Migration routes, foraging grounds, Migration routes, foraging grounds Seed Dispersal Decrease in dispersal of pioneering plants from bat droppings to lit areas, Decrease in activity, especially near urban centers Leads to Decline in organism and population health, What are the negative consequences of Artifical Light at Night on Mammals and the environment? Disrutpion of Circadian Rhythm, Migration routes, foraging grounds Species affected differentially Artifical Selection, Disruption of regulatory processes, metabolism, immune system Leads to Decline in organism and population health, Disrutpion of Circadian Rhythm Causes Decrease in activity, especially near urban centers, What are the negative consequences of Artifical Light at Night on Mammals and the environment? ????, melatonin suppression disrupts regulation Disrutpion of Circadian Rhythm, Nocturnal Mammals How does artificial light affect the physiology and behaviour of bats, and what are the impacts?, Migration routes, foraging grounds Affect Opposite for Insects Decrease in predation, increase in prey species population, Artifical Selection Slow Flying bats Avoid lit areas, possibly from avoiding exposure to predation., Decrease in dispersal of pioneering plants from bat droppings to lit areas Results in Loss of diversity or decrease in establishment of ecological niches, What are the negative consequences of Artifical Light at Night on Mammals and the environment? ???? endocrine disruptors (in this case ALAN)
