Long-term effects of nutrient enrichment controlling plant species and functional composition in a boreal rich fen
(Journal article; Peer reviewed, 2018)Questions: How does long-term increase in nutrient availability affect species composition, species diversity and functional composition in boreal rich fens, and how does this differ from short-term effects? What are the ... -
Long-term environmental monitoring for assessment of change: measurement inconsistencies over time and potential solutions
(Journal article; Peer reviewed, 2017)The importance of long-term environmental monitoring and research for detecting and understanding changes in ecosystems and human impacts on natural systems is widely acknowledged. Over the last decades, a number of critical ... -
Long-term genetic monitoring of a reintroduced Eurasian lynx population does not indicate an ongoing loss of genetic diversity
(Peer reviewed; Journal article, 2023)Where reintroduced wildlife populations are considered as vulnerable this is generally due to limited founder size and isolation. While many of these populations show low levels of genetic diversity, little is known ... -
Long-term impacts of the Smøla wind farm on a local population of white-tailed eagles (Haliaeetus albicilla)
(NINA Report;2333, Research report, 2024)Stokke, B.G., Dahl, E.L., Kleven, O., May, R., Nygård, T., Pavón-Jordán, D. & Sandercock, B.K. 2024. Long-term impacts of the Smøla wind farm on a local population of white-tailed eagles (Haliaeetus albicilla). NINA Report ... -
Long-term increase in female body condition and its effect on reproduction in two European red-listed species, Common Pochard (Aythya ferina) and Tufted Duck (Aythya fuligula)
(Peer reviewed; Journal article, 2023)Body condition of breeding females is an important driver of an individual’s fitness and the consequent dynamics of populations. Long-term changes in female body condition are likely to be affected by recent shifts in ... -
Long-term monitoring of bird migration across the North and Norwegian Seas
(NINA Report;2350, Research report, 2023)Cordes, L.S. & May, R. 2023. Long-term monitoring of bird migration across the North and Norwegian Seas. NINA Report 2350. Norwegian Institute for Nature Research. Renewable energy developments are expanding offshore in ... -
Long-term tracking of an Arctic-breeding seabird indicates high fidelity to pelagic wintering areas
(Peer reviewed; Journal article, 2021)Site fidelity is driven by predictable resource distributions in time and space. However, intrinsic factors related to an individual’s physiology and life-history traits can contribute to consistent foraging behaviour and ... -
Long-term trends in abundances of non-native species across biomes, realms, and taxonomic groups in Europe
(Peer reviewed; Journal article, 2023) -
Long-term variation in numbers and biomass of silver eels being produced in two European river systems
(Journal article; Peer reviewed, 2018)The European eel (Anguilla anguilla) population has been in decline at least since the 1960s and reliable regional information, particularly on the spawner production and escapement (i.e. the silver eel life stage), is a ... -
Longest terrestrial migrations and movements around the world
(Peer reviewed; Journal article, 2019)Long-distance terrestrial migrations are imperiled globally. We determined both round-trip migration distances (straight-line measurements between migratory end points) and total annual movement (sum of the distances ... -
Longevity records show that Upland Sandpipers are long-lived birds
(Journal article, 2020)The life-history traits of migratory waders are characterized by low reproductive rates, delayed maturity, and high survivorship (Myers et al. 1987, Sandercock 2003), which leads to low rates of maximum population growth. ... -
Long‑term PIT tag retention rates in Atlantic salmon (Salmo salar)
(Journal article; Peer reviewed, 2018)Background: Passive integrated transponder (PIT) tags are widely used in studies of various aspects of fish survival, movement and behaviour. Quality of such studies depends on the fish retaining the tags over the study ... -

Louping-ill virus serosurvey of willow ptarmigan (Lagopus Lagopus Lagopus) in Norway
(Peer reviewed; Journal article, 2021)In Norway, the Willow Ptarmigan (Lagopus lagopus lagopus) is experiencing population declines and is nationally Red Listed as Near Threatened. Although disease has not generally been regarded as an important factor behind ... -
Loven øst for Glomma. Om støtte for ulovlig jakt på ulv som uttrykk for politisk motstand
(Peer reviewed; Journal article, 2020)Konfliktene som utspiller seg rundt forvaltningen av ulv har etablert seg som et stabilt og synlig trekk i den norske politiske offentligheten. Også på bakken, ute blant vanlige folk, er kontroversene sterke. I deler av ... -
Low cardiac output as physiological phenomenon in hibernating, free-ranging Scandinavian brown bears (Ursus arctos) - an observational study
(Journal article; Peer reviewed, 2014)Background: Despite 5-7 months of physical inactivity during hibernation, brown bears (Ursus arctos) are able to cope with physiological conditions that would be detrimental to humans. During hibernation, the tissue metabolic ... -

Low impact of dry conditions on the CO2 exchange of aNorthern-Norwegian blanket bog.
(Peer reviewed; Journal Article, 2015)Northern peatlands hold large amounts of organic carbon (C) in their soils and are as such important in a climate change context. Blanket bogs, i.e. nutrient-poor peatlands restricted to maritime climates, may be extra ... -
Low Recruitment in a Population of Brook Trout in a Norwegian Watershed—Is It Due to Dilution of the Water Chemistry?
