Mark Brigham is a Professor in the Department of Biology within the Faculty of Science at the University of Regina. He leads research on animal ecology and physiology, particularly focusing on bats and nightjars. His laboratory website documents extensive fieldwork on thermoregulation, hibernation patterns, and energetics across species.
Research explores physiological adaptations in extreme environments, including hibernation mechanics, thermoregulatory behaviors, and energy conservation strategies in birds and mammals. Significant focus on anthropogenic impacts like light pollution and habitat fragmentation.
Publications demonstrate multidisciplinary approaches combining physiology, ecology, and conservation science. Recent works emphasize:
- Climate adaptation patterns in migratory species
- Novel hibernation behaviors across biogeographical regions
- Conservation strategies informed by physiological thresholds
Laboratory activities include acoustic monitoring, metabolic rate measurements, and field experiments documented at birdandbatlab.weebly.com.
