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 predation by Eurasian otters on Atlantic salmon in two Norwegian rivers
(Peer reviewed; Journal article, 2023)1. The return of the Eurasian otter (Lutra lutra) to western Norway has sparked human–predator conflicts because otters prey on vulnerable Atlantic salmon (Salmo salar) populations. Although predation may not be the ultimate ... -
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 salmon lice emanating from salmon farms on wild Atlantic salmon and sea trout
(NINA Report;1449, Research report, 2018)Thorstad, E.B. & Finstad, B. 2018. Impacts of salmon lice emanating from salmon farms on wild Atlantic salmon and sea trout. NINA Report 1449: 1-22. Results from scientific studies on the impacts of salmon lice on Atlantic ... -
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

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 ... -

Incidence and impacts of escaped farmed Atlantic salmon Salmo salar in nature
(NINA Special Report;36, Book, 2008)Since the mid-1960s, Atlantic salmon Salmo salar farming has grown into a large industry within and beyond the native range of the species. Norway, Chile, Scotland and Canada are the largest producers (46, 31, 10 and 7% ... -
Inclusive conservation and the Post-2020 Global Biodiversity Framework: Tensions and prospects
(Peer reviewed; Journal article, 2022)The draft Post-2020 Global Biodiversity Framework commits to achievement of equity and justice outcomes and represents a ‘‘relational turn’’ in how we understand inclusive conservation. Although ‘‘inclusivity’’ is drawn ... -
Incorporating threat in hotspots and coldspots of biodiversity and ecosystem services
(Journal article; Peer reviewed, 2017)Spatial prioritization could help target conservation actions directed to maintain both biodiversity and ecosystem services. We delineate hotspots and coldspots of two biodiversity conservation features and five ... -
