I’m Marco Basile from the Swiss Federal Analysis Institute WSL positioned close to the colourful metropolis of Zurich, the place I reside. I not too long ago joined the editorial crew at Wildlife Biology. I all the time loved studying this journal as I’m an animal ecologist with a robust curiosity in bird-habitat relationship and biotic interactions amongst species. My present analysis is principally about forest ecosystems and the interactions between insectivore birds and native and non-native insect pests. I make intensive use of inhabitants and neighborhood fashions, with frequentist or Bayesian inference.
My earlier research centered on biodiversity-oriented forest administration, species prevalence and abundance modelling and forest biodiversity indicators. I additionally labored on different animal species, together with mammals, amphibians and beetles. My favorite species are woodpeckers, which have a central position in my analysis. I’ve obtained my PhD from the College of Freiburg, Germany.
Exterior work, I get pleasure from travelling and birdwatching. I like to gather chook guides from the international locations I go to regardless that smartphone apps are making books outdated! Each from time to time, I like to go to chook ringing stations, particularly within the Mediterranean sea and within the Alps.
