Samiske interessers legitimitet og status i politiske og forvaltningsmessige plan- og beslutningsprosesser
(Journal article; Peer reviewed, 2017)Denne artikkelen viser hvilken legitimitet samiske interesser gis i kommunale plan- og beslutningsprosesser om store ressursbaserte industriutbygginger . Den ser på hvordan samiske næringsinteresser deltar og får innflytelse ... -
Satellite telemetry uncovers important wintering areas for Snowy owls on the Kola peninsula, northwestern Russia
(Peer reviewed; Journal article, 2018)In order to reveal winter movements and wintering areas of snowy owls breeding in Northern Fennoscandia, we conducted a telemetry study by use of battery operated satellite transmitters. Nine battery powered ARGOS satellite ... -
Scaring as a tool to alleviate crop damage by geese: Revealing differences between farmers’ perceptions and the scale of the problem
(Journal article; Peer reviewed, 2017)Expanding populations of farmland foraging geese are causing escalating conflict with agriculture. We used questionnaires to investigate farmers´ perceptions in mid-Norway of spring staging geese and the extent to which ... -
Scavenging on a pulsed resource: quality matters for corvids but density for mammals
(Journal article; Peer reviewed, 2017)Background: Human food subsidies can provide predictable food sources in large quantities for wildlife species worldwide. In the boreal forest of Fennoscandia, gut piles from moose (Alces alces) harvest provide a potentially ... -
Scavenging patterns of an inbred wolf population in a landscape with a pulse of human-provided carrion
(Peer reviewed; Journal article, 2023)Scavenging is an important part of food acquisition for many carnivore species that switch between scavenging and predation. In landscapes with anthropogenic impact, humans provide food that scavenging species can utilize. ... -
Science on ecosystems and people to support the Kunming-Montreal Global Biodiversity Framework
(Peer reviewed; Journal article, 2023) -
Sea duck predation in mussel farms: the best nets for excluding common eiders safely and efficiently
(Peer reviewed; Journal article, 2013)Shellfish aquaculture is a growing food-producing sector. The blue mussel Mytilus edulis is the primary farmed shellfish and is also a main prey for various species of sea ducks. With their large density of high-quality ... -
Sea lice in Iceland: assessing the status and current implications for aquaculture and wild salmonids
(Journal article; Peer reviewed, 2019)This is the first in-depth study which quantifies lice infestation levels on wild and farmed salmonids in a fjord system in Iceland (Arnarfjörður, Westfjords) and gives a baseline for the assessment of sea lice infestation ... -
Seabird beachcast events associated with bycatch in the Norwegian purse seine fishery
(Peer reviewed; Journal article, 2022)Beachcast events, where a large number of seabird carcasses drift ashore, occur with irregular intervals. These events are due to specific situations where mass mortality of seabirds have occurred. Disentangling the cause ... -
Seabird-induced natural mortality of forage fish varies with fish abundance: Evidence from five ecosystems
(Peer reviewed; Journal article, 2020) -
Seabirds as guides for fisheries management: European shag Phalacrocorax aristotelis diet as indicator of saithe Pollachius virens recruitment
(Journal article; Peer reviewed, 2018) -
Seasonal and elevational variability in the induction of specialized compounds from mountain birch (Betula pubescens var. pumila) by winter moth larvae (Operophtera brumata)
(Peer reviewed; Journal article, 2021)The mountain birch [Betula pubescens var. pumila (L.)] forest in the Subarctic is periodically exposed to insect outbreaks, which are expected to intensify due to climate change. To mitigate abiotic and biotic stresses, ... -
Seasonal and spatial variation of stream macroinvertebrate taxonomic and functional diversity across three boreal regions
(Peer reviewed; Journal article, 2023)1. The exploration of biodiversity has predominantly been based on taxonomicmeasures, whereas functional diversity, a key component of biodiversity, is compar-atively understudied. Therefore, studies simultaneously ... -
Seasonal habitat use of three predatory fishes in a freshwater ecosystem
(Peer reviewed; Journal article, 2022)To understand the spatiotemporal overlap in the habitat use of sympatric predators, we studied longitudinal activity and reservoir section and depth use of pike (Esox lucius), pikeperch (Sander lucioerca) and catfsh (Silurus ... -
Seasonal host and ecological drivers may promote restricted water as a viral vector
(Peer reviewed; Journal article, 2021)In climates with seasonally limited precipitation, terrestrial animals congregate at high densities at scarce water sources. We hypothesize that viruses can exploit the recurrence of these diverse animal congrega- tions ... -
Seasonal variation in growth, consumption and growth efficiency in overwintering juvenile steelhead
(Peer reviewed; Journal article, 2019)Food availability and thermal regimes can largely govern growth opportunities in fishes. In temperate regions, streams can exhibit summer temperatures that exceed the optima for coolwater-adapted species relative to the ... -
Seasonal variation in urban pollen resource use by north temperate European honeybees
(Peer reviewed; Journal article, 2023)Urban green infrastructure can provide important habitats for pollinators and support urban ecosystem services. Therefore, these areas must be managed to maximize biodiversity and density of pollinating insects. We used ... -
Seasonal variation of mercury contamination in Arctic seabirds: A pan-Arctic assessment
(Peer reviewed; Journal article, 2020)Mercury (Hg) is a natural trace element found in high concentrations in top predators, including Arctic seabirds. Most current knowledge about Hg concentrations in Arctic seabirds relates to exposure during the summer ... -
Seeing the Forest for the Trees: A Review-Based Framework for Better Harmonization of Timber Production, Biodiversity, and Recreation in Boreal Urban Forests
(Peer reviewed; Journal article, 2019)Forested lands serve multiple needs, and the priorities that go into balancing the competing demands can vary over time. In addition to being the source of timber and other natural resources, forested lands provide a ... -
Segmented forest realities: The ontological politics of biodiversity mapping
(Peer reviewed; Journal article, 2022)Since the late 1990 s, biodiversity mapping has been a key instrument for preventing loss of species and habitats in Norwegian productive forests. Having major implications for the abilities of actors to pursue their ...
