Research by the Integrative & Environmental Physiology Laboratory into the basis and demands of long-distance migration in land crabs is reported in a feature story in GEO Magazin. The work is also to be broadcast to German and French viewers on 11 August on ARTE TV. The reported work, supported by the Natural Environment Research Council, follows the team led by Professor Steve Morris in the School of Biological Sciences as it prepares for and studies the annual breeding migration of the Christmas Island Red Crab Gecarcoidea natalis.
