Macrobenthic communities in water bodies and streams of Svalbard, Norway
(Journal article; Peer reviewed, 2017)Diversity of macrobenthic communities was studied from water bodies and streams of Spitsbergen, Svalbard archipelago, Norway. In total 162 quantitative samples from different regions of Spitsbergen were analysed in relation ... -
Macroecological patterns of rodent population dynamics shaped by bioclimatic gradients
(Peer reviewed; Journal article, 2024)Long-term studies of cyclic rodent populations have contributed fundamentally to the development of population ecology. Pioneering rodent studies have shown macroecological patterns of population dynamics in relation to ... -
Macrophytes shape trophic niche variation among generalist fishes
(Journal article; Peer reviewed, 2017)Generalist species commonly have a fundamental role in ecosystems as they can integrate spatially distinct habitats and food-web compartments, as well as control the composition, abundance and behavior of organisms at ... -
Making Messy Data Work for Conservation
(Journal article, 2020)Conservationists increasingly use unstructured observational data, such as citizen science records or ranger patrol observations, to guide decision making. These datasets are often large and relatively cheap to collect, ... -
Mammals show faster recovery from capture and tagging in human-disturbed landscapes
(Peer reviewed; Journal article, 2024)Wildlife tagging provides critical insights into animal movement ecology, physiology, and behavior amid global ecosystem changes. However, the stress induced by capture, handling, and tagging can impact post-release ... -
Managing small populations—using genetic data and trial translocations to help inform suitable conservation measures for the alpine blue-sowthistle (Cicerbita alpina) in Scotland
(Peer reviewed, 2023)Habitat fragmentation is causing an increasing amount of species loss around the world and creates problems at the population level. Many species are left as only small and isolated populations, which are vulnerable to ... -
Managing Svalbard Tourism: Inconsistencies and Conflicts of Interest
(Peer reviewed; Journal article, 2023)The Svalbard Archipelago has experienced a rapid increase in tourism-related activities over the past few decades. The Norwegian Government’s ambition to develop the Archipelago’s tourism industry offers multiple socio-economic ... -

Mapping density, diversity and species-richness of the Amazon tree flora
(Peer reviewed; Journal article, 2023)Using 2.046 botanically-inventoried tree plots across the largest tropical forest on Earth, we mapped tree species-diversity and tree species-richness at 0.1-degree resolution, and investigated drivers for diversity and ... -
Mapping roadless areas in regionswith contrasting human footprint
(Peer reviewed; Journal article, 2024)In an increasingly human- and road-dominated world, the preservation of functional ecosystems has become highly relevant. While the negative ecological impacts of roads on ecosystems are numerous and well documented, ... -
Mapping soil organic carbon stocks and trends with satellite-driven high resolution maps over South Africa
(Peer reviewed; Journal article, 2021)Estimation and monitoring of soil organic carbon (SOC) stocks is important for maintaining soil productivity and meeting climate change mitigation targets. Current global SOC maps do not provide enough detail for landscape- ... -
Mapping value plurality towards ecosystem services in the case of Norwegian wildlife management: A Q analysis
(Journal article; Peer reviewed, 2015)For many deep-rooted resource conflicts where the cultural component of ecosystem services (ES) is strong, standard monetary valuation may be methodologically difficult and not always meaningful. A deeper understanding of ... -
Marin fauna i Gaulosen – Trondheimsfjorden. Et foreslått marint verneområde
(NINA Rapport;1097, Research report, 2014)På oppdrag av Fylkesmannen i Sør-Trøndelag er foreliggende undersøkelse gjennomført av NINA og NTNU for å gi mer informasjon om den marine faunaen i Gaulosen i forbindelse med beslutning om nye marine verneområder i Norge. ... -
Markbulia - Einunna. Verknad på villrein ved endring i regulering av inntaksdam

Marked differences in foraging area use and susceptibility to predation between two closely-related tropical seabirds
(Peer reviewed; Journal article, 2023)Ecological theory predicts that closely-related species must occupy diferent niches to coexist. How marine top predators achieve this during breeding, when they often gather in large multi-species colonies and are constrained ... -
Mass development of aquatic plants: Effects of contrasting management scenarios on a suite of ecosystem services
(Peer reviewed; Journal article, 2023)1. Dense beds of aquatic plants are often perceived as nuisance and therefore mechanically removed, often at substantial cost. Such removal, however, may affect a range of ecosystem functions and consequently also the ... -
Masseuttak i Jordfallet, Alta kommune. Konskvensutredning, deltema naturmiljø

Match between soaring modes of black kites and the fine-scale distribution of updrafts
(Journal article; Peer reviewed, 2017)Understanding how soaring birds use updrafts at small spatial scales is important to identify ecological constraints of movement, and may help to prevent conflicts between wind-energy development and the conservation of ... -
