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