Lund University

A grand, historic building with a central spire and symmetrical architecture stands within a courtyard surrounded by grass and paved pathways under a partly cloudy sky.

Swedish university whose Centre for Animal Movement Research, in collaboration with the long-running bird observatory at Ottenby on Öland, has carried out some of the most detailed long-term studies of European songbird migration. The Lund group pioneered the use of geolocators light enough to be carried by birds the size of a sparrow, opening up individual-scale tracking of routes that were previously inferred only from ringing recoveries.
