Stephens symposium ZOOLOGICAL SOCIETY OF LONDON REGENTS PARK, LONDON, NW1 4RY 14 and 15 November 2013 FROM ENERGETICS TO MACROECOLOGY: CARNIVORE RESPONSES TO ENVIRONMENTAL CHANGE Organised by: Chris Carbone, Zoological Society of London; Nathalie Pettorelli, Zoological Society of London; Philip Stephens, Durham University; Roland Kays, North Carolina Museum of Natural Sciences; Erlend Nilsen, Norwegian Institute for Nature Research (NINA) Habitat loss, fragmentation and degradation threaten wildlife worldwide and are primary causes of extinction. These landscape changes affect the availability and distribution of food which, in turn, affect the energy balance of individuals, ultimately reducing both survival and reproduction. The resulting declines in individual numbers can lead to lower population densities, local extinction and, eventually, global range collapse. To have a chance of mitigating the impacts of global environmental changes on biodiversity, we need to increase our understanding of how animals respond to these changes. This requires integrating data across biological scales, from individuals to populations, and from species to community assemblages. Carnivores are a particularly good group for this approach. They are well studied at different biological scales and are one of the few groups for which we have reliable data on predator and prey abundance across a range of species and ecosystems. This provides an opportunity for a unique understanding of phenomena acting across populations and species. We will combine studies of individual behaviour and energetics with studies of populations to learn how patterns in animal space use vary with environmental productivity. Our aim is to identify how and why species differ in their responses to environmental variation and tolerances to future environmental change.
