How to deal with bold wolves – Recommendations of the DBBW –
(Bfn-Skripten;, Research report, 2020)For a long time, there were no wolves in Germany. Since 2000, the species has been steadily spreading out from Lusatia and populating more areas. People in areas recently settled by wolves are only gradually learning how ... -
Seasonal variation of mercury contamination in Arctic seabirds: A pan-Arctic assessment
(Peer reviewed; Journal article, 2020)Mercury (Hg) is a natural trace element found in high concentrations in top predators, including Arctic seabirds. Most current knowledge about Hg concentrations in Arctic seabirds relates to exposure during the summer ... -
The structural variation landscape in 492 Atlantic salmon genomes
(Peer reviewed; Journal article, 2020)Structural variants (SVs) are a major source of genetic and phenotypic variation, but remain challenging to accurately type and are hence poorly characterized in most species. We present an approach for reliable SV discovery ... -
The challenges and opportunities of coexisting with wild ungulates in the human-dominated landscapes of Europe's Anthropocene
(Peer reviewed; Journal article, 2020)The cumulative impact of human activities has driven many species into severe declines across the globe. However, the recent focus on conservation optimism has begun to highlight case studies that go against this trend. ... -
Cortinarius ochrolamellatus (Agaricales, Basidiomycota): a new species in C. sect. Laeti, with comments on the origin of its European-Hyrcanian distribution
(Peer reviewed; Journal article, 2020)Geographic distributions of mushroom-forming fungi usually remain elusive because of the scarcity of occurrence data. However, the increasing number of environmental and ectomycorrhizal (EcM) root tip DNA sequences deposited ... -
Can cultural ecosystem services contribute to satisfying basic human needs? A case study from the Lofoten archipelago, northern Norway
(Peer reviewed; Journal article, 2020)There is gradual recognition that cultural ecosystem services are critical building blocks for human well-being. Cultural and provisioning services are often intertwined, difficult to separate, and play salient roles in ... -
Long-distance hikers and their inner journeys: On motives and pilgrimage to Nidaros, Norway
(Peer reviewed; Journal article, 2020)Several historic pilgrimage routes called Saint Olav Ways terminate at the Nidaros Cathedral in Trondheim, Norway. All have status as European Cultural Routes. Most popular is the 643 km Gudbrandsdal route from Oslo. The ... -
Systematic review and meta-analysis of PIT tagging effects on mortality and growth of juvenile salmonids
(Peer reviewed; Journal article, 2020)A systematic review and meta-analysis was conducted to evaluate the appropriate tag:fish size ratio when tagging juvenile salmonids (genera Oncorhynchus, Salmo, and Salvelinus). The review yielded 18 publications with 211 ... -
Occupancy-based monitoring of ungulate prey species in Thailand indicates population stability, but limited recovery
(Peer reviewed; Journal article, 2020)Longitudinal studies of wildlife are urgently needed in South-East Asia to understand population responses to the high poaching pressure that characterizes this region. We monitored population trends and habitat use of ... -
Delineating participation in conservation governance: Insights from the Sierra de Guadarrama National Park (Spain)
(Peer reviewed; Journal article, 2020)The active participation of local stakeholders in governing protected areas is increasingly recognized in biodiversity conservation. While progress has been made in countries to facilitate inclusivity in conservation ... -

The last moves: The effect of hunting and culling on the risk of disease spread from a population of reindeer
(Peer reviewed; Journal article, 2020)1. Hunting and culling are frequently used to combat infectious wildlife diseases. The aim is to markedly lower population density in order to limit disease transmission or to eradicate the host. Massive host culling can ... -
Repeatable individual variation in migration timing in two anadromous salmonids and ecological consequences
(Peer reviewed; Journal article, 2020)Consistent individual differences in behavior have been demonstrated for many animals, but there are few studies of consequences of such repeated behavior in the wild. We tested consistency in migration timing to and from ... -
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 ... -
The potential of geospatial analysis and Bayesian networks to enable i-Tree Eco assessment of existing tree inventories
(Peer reviewed; Journal article, 2020)Valuing the ecosystem services of urban trees is important for gaining public and political support for urban tree conservation and maintenance. The i-Tree Eco software application can be used to estimate regulating ecosystem ... -
Lack of Cascading Effects of Eurasian Lynx Predation on Roe Deer to Soil and Plant Nutrients
(Peer reviewed; Journal article, 2020)This study examines the extent to which above-ground trophic processes such as large carnivore predation on wild ungulates can cause cascading effects through the provision of carrion resources to below-ground ecosystem ... -

Surviving the Antarctic winter—Life Stage Cold Tolerance and Ice Entrapment Survival in The Invasive Chironomid Midge Eretmoptera murphyi
(Peer reviewed; Journal article, 2020)An insect’s ability to tolerate winter conditions is a critical determinant of its success. This is true for both native and invasive species, and especially so in harsh polar environments. The midge Eretmoptera murphyi ... -
The effectiveness of Virkon® S disinfectant against an invasive insect and implications for Antarctic biosecurity practices
(Peer reviewed; Journal article, 2020)The flightless midge Eretmoptera murphyi is thought to be continuing its invasion of Signy Island via the treads of personnel boots. Current boot-wash biosecurity protocols in the Antarctic region rely on microbial biocides, ...
