      The timing of annual events such as reproduction is a critical component of how free‐living organisms respond to ongoing climate change. This may be especially true in the Arctic, which is disproportionally impacted by ...
    • Metapopulation regulation acts at multiple spatial scales: Insights from a century of seabird colony census data 

      Jeglinski, Jana W.E.; Wanless, Sarah; Murray, Stuart; Barrett, Robert; Gardarsson, Arnthor; Harris, Mike P.; Dierschke, Jochen; Strøm, Hallvard; Lorentsen, Svein-Håkon; Matthiopoulos, Jason (Peer reviewed; Journal article, 2023)
      Density-dependent feedback is recognized as important regulatory mechanisms of population size. Considering the spatial scales over which such feedback operates has advanced our theoretical understanding of metapopulation ...
    • Population status, breeding biology and diet of Norwegian Great Cormorants 

      Lorentsen, Svein-Håkon; Anker-Nilssen, Tycho; Barrett, Robert; Systad, Geir Helge Rødli (Peer reviewed; Journal article, 2021)
      Two subspecies of the Great Cormorant breed in Norway, the continental Phalacrocorax carbo sinensis in the south, along the Skagerrak coast, and the marine P. c. carbo from central Norway and northwards. Here we review the ...
    • Prevailing weather conditions and dietcomposition affect chick growth and survival in the black-legged kittiwake 

      Christensen-Dalsgaard, Signe; May, Roelof Frans; Barrett, Robert; Langset, Magdalene; Sandercock, Brett; Lorentsen, Svein Håkon (Journal article; Peer reviewed, 2018)
      To identify priorities for management of seabirds during the breeding season, it is important to understand the ecological mechanisms driving chick growth and survival. In this study, we examined the effects of diet and ...
