Differential effects of artificial lighting on flight and foraging behaviour of two sympatric bat species in a desert (2011, background): “, 2009) and reduce physiological condition (Boldogh et al., 2007).”
Conserving energy at a cost to biodiversity? Impacts of LED lighting on bats (2012, background): “Boldogh et al. (2007) found that juvenile M. emarginatus and M. oxygnathus were smaller and weighed less in illuminated compared with nonilluminated roosts, suggesting delayed parturition or slower growth rates.”
Dark Matters: The Effects of Artificial Lighting on Bats (2016, background): “However, some photosensitive bats may be disrupted even if areas were only lit for a short period of time (Boldogh et al. 2007), and switching off lighting may be challenged if it is perceived to jeopardise public safety (Lyytimäki and Rinne 2013).”
Carpe noctem: the importance of bats as bioindicators (2009, background): “For example, emergence may be extended and infant growth retarded by house lights in some slow-flying bat species adapted to more forested habitats (Boldogh et al. 2007).”
