Conservation of Galliformes in the Greater Himalaya: is there a need for a higher-quality evidence-base?
(Peer reviewed; Journal article, 2022)Global biodiversity is at a heightened risk of extinction and we are losing species faster than at any other time. It is important to understand the threats that drive a species towards extinction in order to address those ... -
Conservation of the endangered Arctic fox in Norway - are successful reintroductions enough?
(Peer reviewed; Journal article, 2022)Translocation of captive-bred animals has become a widespread conservation practice to counteract species extinctions. We analyse and discuss the apparent success and shortcomings of Arctic fox (Vulpes lagopus) reintroductions ... -
Conservation professionals agree on challenges to coexisting with large carnivores but not on solutions
(Journal article; Peer reviewed, 2018)Although many studies explore characteristics of stakeholders or publics “for” or “against” large carnivores, disagreements among conservation professionals advocating different conservation strategies also occur, but are ... -
Conservation professionals' views on governing for coexistence with large carnivores
(Peer reviewed; Journal article, 2020)Decision-making about large carnivores is complex and controversial, and processes vary from deliberation and expert analysis to ballot boxes and courtrooms. Decision-makers range from neighboring landowners to the United ... -
Conserving on the edge: genetic variation and structure in Northern populations of the endangered plant Dracocephalum ruyschiana L. (Lamiaceae)
(Peer reviewed; Journal article, 2020)Loss of biodiversity is accelerating, including the loss of genetic diversity. Conservation of small, isolated populations may be important, as they can provide valuable contributions to overall genetic variation and ... -
Conserving Wolves by Transforming Them? The Transformative E!fects of Technologies of Government in Biodiversity Conservation
(Peer reviewed; Journal article, 2020)This article investigates the construction of instruments and techniques employed in the management of Norwegian wolves since the early 1980s by construing the tools as technologies of government. The proliferation of such ... -
Considering sampling bias in close-kin mark–recapture abundance estimates of Atlantic salmon
(Peer reviewed; Journal article, 2021)Genetic methods for the estimation of population size can be powerful alternatives to conventional methods. Close-kin mark–recapture (CKMR) is based on the principles of conventional mark–recapture, but instead of being ... -
Constraining forest certificate's market to improve cost-effectiveness of biodiversity conservation in São Paulo state, Brazil
(Journal article; Peer reviewed, 2016)The recently launched Brazilian ªforest certificatesº market is expected to reduce environmental compliance costs for landowners through an offset mechanism, after a long history of conservation laws based in command-and-control ... -
Contemporary ocean warming and freshwater conditions are related to later sea age at maturity in Atlantic salmon spawning in Norwegian rivers
(Journal article; Peer reviewed, 2012)Atlantic salmon populations are reported to be declining throughout its range, raising major management concerns. Variation in adult fish abundance may be due to variation in survival, growth, and timing of life history ... -
Context drives movement patterns in a mobile marine predator
(Peer reviewed; Journal article, 2023)Intra-specific variability in movement behaviour occurs in all major taxonomic groups. Despite its common occurrence and ecological consequences, individual variability is often overlooked. As a result, there is a persistent ... -
Context-dependent demographic and genetic effects of translocation from a captive breeding project
(Peer reviewed; Journal article, 2022)Translocations are a widespread approach to conserve threatened populations. Given the rapid decline and genetic deterioration of many natural populations, translocations are expected to become even more common in the ... -
A context-sensitive systems approach for understanding and enabling ecosystem service realization in cities
(Peer reviewed; Journal article, 2021)Understanding opportunities as well as constraints for people to benefit from and take care of urban nature is an important step toward more sustainable cities. In order to explore, engage, and enable strategies to improve ... -
Continental-Scale Land Cover Mapping at 10 m Resolution Over Europe (ELC10)
(Peer reviewed; Journal article, 2021)Land cover maps are important tools for quantifying the human footprint on the environment and facilitate reporting and accounting to international agreements addressing the Sustainable Development Goals. Widely used ... -
Continuous outmigration and sequential encountering of environmental cues are important for successful homing of hatchery-reared, anadromous brown trout Salmo trutta
(Peer reviewed; Journal article, 2021)When rehabilitating and reintroducing trout Salmo trutta in rivers, it is a goal that as many as possible survive, home and form self-sustaining populations. Hatcheryreared, anadromous S. trutta have significant lower ... -
Contrasting genomic consequences of anthropogenic reintroduction and natural recolonization in high-arctic wild reindeer
(Peer reviewed; Journal article, 2023)Anthropogenic reintroduction can supplement natural recolonization in reestablishing a species' distribution and abundance. However, both reintroductions and recolonizations can give rise to founder effects that reduce ... -
Contrasting multi-taxa functional diversity patterns along vegetation structure gradients of woody pastures
(Peer reviewed; Journal article, 2020)Woody pastures represent keystone habitats for biodiversity in agricultural landscapes, contributing to increased resource availability, landscape heterogeneity and structural variability. High taxonomic diversity is closely ... -
Contrasting Spatial and Seasonal Trends of Methylmercury Exposure Pathways of Arctic Seabirds: Combination of Large-Scale Tracking and Stable Isotopic Approaches
(Peer reviewed; Journal article, 2020)Despite the limited direct anthropogenic mercury (Hg) inputs in the circumpolar Arctic, elevated concentrations of methylmercury (MeHg) are accumulated in Arctic marine biota. However, the MeHg production and bioaccumulation ... -
Contrasting structural complexity diferentiate hunting strategy in an ambush apex predator
(Peer reviewed; Journal article, 2021)Structural complexity is known to influence prey behaviour, mortality and population structure, but the effects on predators have received less attention. We tested whether contrasting structural complexity in two newly ... -
Contrasting survival and physiological responses of sub-Arctic plant types to extreme winter warming and nitrogen
(Journal article; Peer reviewed, 2017)Main conclusion Evergreen plants are more vulnerable than grasses and birch to snow and temperature variability in the sub-Arctic. Most Arctic climate impact studies focus on single factors, such as summer warming, while ... -
The contributions of flower strips to wild bee conservation in agricultural landscapes can be predicted using pollinator habitat suitability models
(Peer reviewed; Journal article, 2023)1. Sowing flower strips along field edges is a widely adopted method for conserving pollinating insects in agricultural landscapes. To maximize the effect of flower strips given limited resources, we need spatially explicit ...
