Spatial distribution in Norwegian lemming Lemmus lemmus in relation to the phase of the cycle
(Peer reviewed; Journal article, 2018)Competition between individuals of the same or different species affects spatial distribution of organisms at any given time. Consequently, a species geographical distribution is related to population dynamics through ... -
Spatial genetic structure of the abundant and Widespread Peatmoss Sphagnum magellanicum Brid .
(PLoS ONE;, Journal article; Peer reviewed, 2016) -
A Spatial Modeling Framework for Monitoring Surveys with Different Sampling Protocols with a Case Study for Bird Abundance in Mid-Scandinavia
(Peer reviewed; Journal article, 2022)Quantifying the total number of individuals (abundance) of species is the basis for spatial ecology and biodiversity conservation. Abundance data are mostly collected through professional surveys as part of monitoring ... -
Spatial Multi-Criteria Decision Analysis (SMCDA) toolbox for Consensus-based Siting of Powerlines and Wind-power plants (ConSite)
(NINA Rapport;1455, Research report, 2018)Hanssen, F., May, R., Van Dijk, J., Stokke, B.G., De Stefano, M. 2018. Spatial Multi-Criteria Decision Analysis (SMCDA) toolbox for Consensus-based Siting of Powerlines and Wind-power plants (Con-Site). NINA Report 1455. ... -
Spatial variation in the evolutionary potential and constraints of basal metabolic rate and body mass in a wild bird
(Peer reviewed; Journal article, 2023)An organism's energy budget is strongly related to resource consumption, performance, and fitness. Hence, understanding the evolution of key energetic traits, such as basal metabolic rate (BMR), in natural populations is ... -
Spatial variation in the relationship between performance and metabolic rate in wild juvenile Atlantic salmon
(Journal article; Peer reviewed, 2014) -
Spatial variations in winter Hg contamination affect egg volume in an Arctic seabird, the great skua (Stercorarius skua)
(Peer reviewed; Journal article, 2022)Knowledge of the ecology and at-sea distribution of migratory species like seabirds has substantially increased over the last two decades. Furthermore, an increasing number of studies have recently focused on chemical ... -
Spatio-temporal patterns of crop damage caused by geese, swans and cranes—Implications for crop damage prevention
(Peer reviewed; Journal article, 2020)European populations of geese, swans and cranes have increased considerably since the 1970s raising conflictsbetween conservation and farming interests. Crop damage caused by geese, swans and cranes across the nationalscale ... -
Spatiotemporal Dynamics of Hantavirus Cardiopulmonary Syndrome Transmission Risk in Brazil
(Peer reviewed; Journal article, 2019)Background: Hantavirus disease in humans is rare but frequently lethal in the Neotropics. Several abundant and widely distributed Sigmodontinae rodents are the primary hosts of Orthohantavirus and, in combination with other ... -
Spatiotemporal tourism pattern in a large reindeer (Rangifer tarandus tarandus) range as an important factor in disturbance research and management
(Peer reviewed; Journal article, 2020)Tourism and recreation in protected areas may compromise conservation values if their forms and volumes exceed the area’s tolerance. Disturbance-sensitive species such as wild and semi-domestic reindeer (Rangifer tarandus ... -
Spatiotemporal variation in the relationship between boreal forest productivity proxies and climate data
(Peer reviewed; Journal article, 2019)The impacts of climate change on high-latitude forest ecosystems are still uncertain. Divergent forest productivity trends have recently been reported both at the local and regional level challenging the projections of ... -
Spatiotemporal Variations in Trace Element Compositions in Pollock Populations under the Influence of Coastal Norwegian Salmon Farms
(Peer reviewed; Journal article, 2022)Pollock Pollachius virens (also known as Saithe) modify their feeding habits when including in their diet uneaten feed pellets from salmon aquaculture sea cages. To determine the influence of salmon farms on Pollock, ... -
Spatio–temporal distribution of greylag goose Anser anser resightings on the north-west/south-west European flyway: guidance for the delineation of transboundary management units
(Journal article; Peer reviewed, 2019)In western Europe, the majority of wild goose populations have increased exponentially over the last decades. Such increase is the source of many socio–ecological conflicts. The need for coordinated management actions to ... -
Species interactions, environmental gradients and body size shape population niche width
(Peer reviewed; Journal article, 2021)1. Competition for shared resources is commonly assumed to restrict population-level niche width of coexisting species. However, the identity and abundance of coexisting species, the prevailing environmental conditions, ... -
Species-specific spatiotemporal patterns of leopard, lion and tiger attacks on humans
(Journal article; Peer reviewed, 2018)1. Large carnivores of the genus Panthera can pose serious threats to public safety. Although the annual number of attacks on humans is rare compared to livestock depredation, such incidents undermine popular support for ... -

Sperm velocity in a promiscuous bird across experimental media of different viscosities
(Peer reviewed; Journal article, 2020)In species with internal fertilization, the female genital tract appears challenging to sperm, possibly resulting from selection on for example ovarian fluid to control sperm behaviour and, ultimately, fertilization. Few ... -
Sphagnum incundum a new species in Sphagnum subg. Acutifolia (Sphagnaceae) from boreal and arctic regions of North America
(Journal article; Peer reviewed, 2018)We describe Sphagnum incundum in Sphagnum subg. Acutifolia (Sphagnaceae, Bryophyta). We used both molecular and morphological methods to describe the new species. Molecular relationships with closely related species were ... -
