معرفی
Henjo de Knegt is a Researcher in the Department of Wildlife Ecology and Conservation at Wageningen University & Research. His work focuses on animal movement ecology, conservation biology, and the application of technology in ecological studies. He has contributed to projects on poacher detection using animal movement patterns, UAV-based anti-predator strategies in African savannas, and pest-control solutions inspired by insect behavior. De Knegt co-supervises multiple PhD candidates, including studies on collective decision-making in wildlife, anti-predator strategies, and sensor technology for livestock health monitoring.
Research interests include stopover sites, golden jackals, quagga behavior, and the integration of sensor technology with ecological research. His recent publications explore agent-based models for animal group dynamics, edge computing in wildlife tracking, and flight activity in pied flycatchers. Collaborations span institutions globally, addressing topics like pest moth escape maneuvers and the impacts of environmental stressors on animal behavior.
De Knegt’s work bridges theoretical ecology with applied solutions, such as using animal behavior to improve conservation strategies and agricultural pest management. He has been involved in datasets related to poacher detection and elephant-mediated ecological cascades, emphasizing interdisciplinary approaches.
