You're invited to join Aiken Audubon's virtual program:
Bird migration in the 21st century: Tools for monitoring and conservation strategies
featuring Dr Kyle Horton, Principal Investigator of CSU's Aeroecology Lab in the Dept. of Fish, Wildlife and Conservation Biology. Dr Horton also leads NASA's study on the impact of artificial light on migratory birds.
When: 7:00 P.M. Wednesday, March 17th
Spring bird migration is officially underway! The notion of hundreds of millions, if not billions, of migratory birds passing in and out of broad geographic areas is of considerable public and ecological interest – and of conservation concern. Capturing and quantifying these large-scale movements has remained a principle challenge. Kyle Horton, Colorado State University assistant professor, will discuss how he uses weather surveillance radar to forecast migratory movements across the United States, and how we can use that information to inform bird conservation.
