Az emberi zavarás hatásainak kísérletes vizsgálata vadon élő madaraknál

Abstract

In my thesis, we investigated the effects of long-term human disturbance on the risk-taking behaviour of wild birds and on various parameters of their reproductive success. In our research, we used the great tit (Parus major) as a model species, which has been shown by several previous studies to be highly adaptable to humans. Our study was conducted in the experimental forest of Farkasgyepű with low human disturbance in 2022 and 2023. In addition to regular nest checks during the breeding season of the great tits, we established three treatment groups: a no-sound control, a bird sound control, and a human voice treatment group that mimics human disturbance.
