Identifying bottlenecks in the life cycle of plants living on cliffs and rocky slopes: Lack of knowledge hinders conservation actions
(Peer reviewed; Journal article, 2023)Long term survival of plant populations relies on successful reproductive cycle to obtain generation turnover. Focusing on plant species of conservation concern, we brought together a group of plant conservationists from ... -
Identifying high‑risk areas for introduction of new alien species: the case of the invasive round goby, a door‑knocker for Norway
(Peer reviewed; Journal article, 2022)Identifying new areas of colonisation by alien species is important for early detection and management. Door-knocker species pose problems for traditional predictive models because of lacking presence–absence data, but ... -
Identifying individual polar bears at safe distances: A test with captive animals
(Peer reviewed; Journal article, 2020)The need to recognise individuals in population and behavioural studies has stimulated the development of various identification methods. A commonly used method is to employ natural markers to distinguish individuals. In ... -
Image dimensions of two Scandinavian endurance winter sport events
(Peer reviewed; Journal article, 2020)This study investigates event images of two Scandinavian endurance skiing events. It adds to the relatively limited literature on endurance sport event images and provides a better understanding of how participants perceive ... -
Impact of Multiple Ecological Stressors on a Sub-Arctic Ecosystem: No Interaction Between Extreme Winter Warming Events, Nitrogen Addition and Grazing
(Peer reviewed; Journal article, 2018)Climate change is one of many ongoing human-induced environmental changes, but few studies consider interactive effects between multiple anthropogenic disturbances. In coastal sub-arctic heathland, we quantified the ... -
Impacts of a warming climate on concentrations of organochlorines in a fasting high arctic marine bird: Direct vs. indirect effects?
(Peer reviewed; Journal article, 2023)The present study examined how climate changes may impact the concentrations of lipophilic organochlorines (OCs) in the blood of fasting High Arctic common eiders (Somateria mollissima) during incubation. Polychlorinated ... -
Impacts of a weir and power station on downstream migrating Atlantic salmon smolts in a German river
(Peer reviewed; Journal article, 2020)Weirs are barriers built across rivers for a wide range of other purposes than hydropower production. Like hydropower installations, weirs can negatively impact fish migrations. Downstream migration and mortality of Atlantic ... -
Impacts of Forest Management on Forest Bird Occurrence Patterns—A Case Study in Central Europe
(Peer reviewed; Journal article, 2022)The global increase in demand for wood products, calls for a more sustainable management of forests to optimize both the production of wood and the conservation of forest biodiversity. In this paper, we evaluate the status ... -
Impacts of piscicide-induced fish removal on resource use and trophic diversity of lake invertebrates
(Peer reviewed; Journal article, 2022)Chemical eradication of non-native species has become a widely used method to mitigate the potential negative im- pacts of altered competitive or predatory dynamics on biodiversity and natural ecosystem processes. However, ... -
Impacts of predator-mediated interactions along a climatic gradient on the population dynamics of an alpine bird
(Peer reviewed; Journal article, 2020)According to classic theory, species’ population dynamics and distributions are less influenced by species interactions under harsh climatic conditions compared to under more benign climatic conditions. In alpine and boreal ... -
Impacts of snow season on ground-ice accumulation, soil frost andprimary productivity in a grassland of sub-Arctic Norway
(Peer reviewed; Journal article, 2015)Europe’s and the World’s northernmost agriculture is very vulnerable to harsh overwintering conditions. It is important from both an economic and societal standpoint to have accurate methods of predicting the severity ... -
Impacts of wild fishes attracted to open-cage salmonid farms in Norway
(Journal article; Peer reviewed, 2014)Salmonid farming affects both the environment and other industries, with impacts of wild fish attracted to fish farms being a major concern. Here, we summarized existing knowledge on the impacts of such aggregations around ... -
Implementation of the first adaptive management plan for a European migratory waterbird population: The case of the Svalbard pink-footed goose Anser brachyrhynchus
(Journal article; Peer reviewed, 2017)An International Species Management Plan for the Svalbard population of the pink-footed goose was adopted under theAgreement on theConservation of African-Eurasian Migratory Waterbirds in 2012, the first case of adaptive ... -
Implementing code review in the scientific workflow: Insights from ecology and evolutionary biology
(Peer reviewed; Journal article, 2023)Code review increases reliability and improves reproducibility of research. As such, code review is an inevitable step in software development and is common in fields such as computer science. However, despite its importance, ... -
Implications of fisheries impacts to seabed biodiversity and ecosystem-based management
(Journal article; Peer reviewed, 2016) -
Importance of spatial configuration of deadwood habitats in species conservation
(Peer reviewed; Journal article, 2019)Komonen and Müller (2018) aimed to inform connectivity conservation of saproxylic (deadwood-dependent) organisms. Out of the many different definitions of connectivity, they focus on structural connectivity and relate it ... -
Improving collaboration between ecosystem service communities and the IPBES science-policy platform
(Peer reviewed; Journal article, 2020)The end of the first working program of the Intergovernmental Science-Policy Platform on Biodiversity and Ecosystem Services (IPBES) provided an opportunity to draw lessons from its work. This perspective paper captures ... -
In situ measurement of salinity during seaward migration of Atlantic salmon post‑smolts using acoustic transmitters with data‑storage capabilities and conventional acoustic transmitters
(Journal article; Peer reviewed, 2017)Background: Development of miniature acoustic transmitters and data-storage tags has provided new insights into ecology of free-ranging aquatic animals. In this study, we used a data-storage-type and a conventional acoustic ... -
