This research investigates the impact of artificial light on sleep patterns in wild birds, specifically great tits. Using advanced electroencephalogram technology, the project aims to understand how light pollution affects different sleep types and intensities.
Sleep is an adaptive state of inactivity, which plays critical functions including replenishing energy and neurological recovery.
Artificial light at night (ALAN) is ubiquitous in the urbanizing world, and has the potential to substantially alter sleep patterns.
Our understanding of how ALAN affects sleep in wild animals is seriously limited, because past studies have relied on behavioural metrics of sleep, which cannot distinguish different types of sleep (rapid eye movement (REM) versus slow…
