Effects of artificial light at night (ALAN) on interactions between aquatic and terrestrial ecosystems

, 2017
It has become clear that artificial light at night (ALAN) is one of the most widespread human-induced alteration of the landscape. Among consequences of ALAN are alterations of animal behaviour and movement. This can lead to changes in spatial and temporal patterns in species distribution, potentially altering predator-prey relationships within and ...

ALANizer: Design and validation of experimental lighting rig for studying artificial light at night in ecosystems

1 Abstract Over the past few centuries, human activity has introduced astoundingly bright light to the environment at a rapidly accelerating pace. Artificial light at night (ALAN) has detrimental effects on a wide range of organisms, including arthropods.

Assessing Light Pollution Exposure for the Most Important Sea Turtle Nesting Area in the Mediterranean Region

Journal of Marine Science and Engineering
Artificial light at night (ALAN) is impacting sea turtle nesting around the globe by decreasing the nesting attempts, disorienting the sea turtle hatchlings while trying to find the sea, and disrupting hatchlings’ offshore migration. In the Mediterranean

Blue Light and Digital Screens Revisited: A New Look at Blue Light from the Vision Quality, Circadian Rhythm and Cognitive Functions Perspective [PDF]

Journal of Biomedical Physics and Engineering
Research conducted over the years has established that artificial light at night (ALAN), particularly short wavelengths in the blue region (~400–500 nm), can disrupt the circadian rhythm, cause sleep disturbances, and lead to metabolic dysregulation ...

Light traps as an exploratory tool in light pollution studies: Assessment of vulnerable species and their migratory patterns [PDF]

Artificial Light at Night (ALAN) is one of the most widespread stressors on coastal marine habitats. Despite their sparse use in light pollution studies, light traps are a useful methodology to explore which species are attracted by ALAN.
