      Background: Climate change potentially has important effects on distribution, abundance, transmission and virulence of parasites in wild populations of animals. Methodology/Principal Finding: Here we analyzed paired ...

(Journal article; Peer reviewed, 2016)
      For over 50 years, the great tit (Parus major) has been a model species for research in evolutionary, ecological and behavioural research; in particular, learning and cognition have been intensively studied. Here, to ...
    • Interactions between demography and environmental effects are important determinants of population dynamics 

      Gamelon, Marlène; Grøtan, Vidar; Nilsson, Anna L. K.; Engen, Steinar; Hurrell, James W.; Jerstad, Kurt; Phillips, Adam S.; Røstad, Ole Wiggo; Slagsvold, Tore; Walseng, Bjørn; Stenseth, Nils Christian; Sæther, Bernt-Erik (Journal article; Peer reviewed, 2017)
      Climate change will affect the population dynamics of many species, yet the consequences for the long-term persistence of populations are poorly understood. A major reason for this is that density-dependent feedback effects ...
    • Long-term annual and spatial variation of polygyny in the white-throated dipper (Cinclus cinclus) 

      Walseng, Bjørn; Durant, Joël; Hessen, Dag Olav; Jerstad, Kurt; Nilsson, Anna; Røstad, Ole Wiggo; Slagsvold, Tore (Peer reviewed; Journal article, 2022)
      Mating strategies are key components in the fitness of organisms, and notably in birds the occurrence of monogamy versus polygyny has attracted wide interest. We address this by a very comprehensive dataset (2899 breeding ...
    • Territory location and quality, together with climate, affect the timing of breeding in the whitethroated dipper 

      Nilsson, Anna; Slagsvold, Tore; Røstad, Ole Wiggo; Knudsen, E.; Jerstad, Kurt; Cadahia, Luis; Reitan, Trond; Helberg, Morten; Walseng, Bjørn; Stenseth, Nils Christian (Journal article; Peer reviewed, 2019)
      Recent climate change has led to advanced spring phenology in many temperate regions. The phenological response to variation in the local environment, such as the habitat characteristics of the territories birds occupy, ...
