Impacts of a warming climate on concentrations of organochlorines in a fasting high arctic marine bird: Direct vs. indirect effects?
(Peer reviewed; Journal article, 2023)The present study examined how climate changes may impact the concentrations of lipophilic organochlorines (OCs) in the blood of fasting High Arctic common eiders (Somateria mollissima) during incubation. Polychlorinated ... -
Undersökning av fjädrar från båtgravar i Valsgärde gravbacke
(Peer reviewed; Journal article, 2021)Fågelfjädrar från Färöarna och Nordnorge an vändes enligt skriftliga källor både som handels vara och till att betala skatter och avgifter med under medeltiden och tidigare (Kolsrud 1959; Berglund 2009, s. 119ff). Den ... -
Temporal shifts in the marine feeding of individual Atlantic salmon inferred from scale isotope ratios
(Peer reviewed; Journal article, 2023)Given the limited information on prey use during the marine residency period for Atlantic salmon, scales were collected from salmon at return to the River Namsen (Norway) for spawning after 1 year at sea, and scale material ... -
Distribution of the gill parasite Discocotyle sagittata (Monogenea: Polyopisthocotylea) in parr of Atlantic salmon Salmo salar and sea trout S. trutta in Norwegian rivers
(Peer reviewed; Journal article, 2023)The monogenean gill parasite Discocotyle sagittata is reported from parr of Atlantic salmon Salmo salar and sea trout S. trutta in the anadromous part of 86 out of 223 Norwegian rivers. The prevalence in each river varied ... -
Contrasting genomic consequences of anthropogenic reintroduction and natural recolonization in high-arctic wild reindeer
(Peer reviewed; Journal article, 2023)Anthropogenic reintroduction can supplement natural recolonization in reestablishing a species' distribution and abundance. However, both reintroductions and recolonizations can give rise to founder effects that reduce ... -
Multiple stressors: negative effects of nest predation on the viability of a threatened gull in different environmental conditions
(Peer reviewed; Journal article, 2022)The majority of the world's seabirds show substantial population declines, but a detailed understanding of the phenomenon is lacking. A potentially important mechanism that has received momentum lately is nest predation. ... -
Seasonal variation in urban pollen resource use by north temperate European honeybees
(Peer reviewed; Journal article, 2023)Urban green infrastructure can provide important habitats for pollinators and support urban ecosystem services. Therefore, these areas must be managed to maximize biodiversity and density of pollinating insects. We used ... -
Automated fluvial hydromorphology mapping from airborne remote sensing
(Peer reviewed; Journal article, 2023)Mapping fluvial hydromorphology is an important part of defining river habitat. Mappingvia field sampling or hydraulic modelingis however time consuming, and mappinghydromorphology directly from remote sensing data may ... -
Participatory monitoring drives biodiversity knowledge in global protected areas
(Peer reviewed; Journal article, 2023)Protected areas are central in strategies to conserve biodiversity. Effective area-based conservation relies on biodiversity data, but the current biodiversity knowledge base is insufficient and limited by geographic and ... -
Predation of Atlantic salmon across ontogenetic stages and impacts on populations
(Peer reviewed; Journal article, 2023)Managers and stakeholders increasingly ask whether predation is a driving force behind the poor status of many species, and whether predator control is likely to be a successful management action to intervene. We review ... -
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 ... -
Transformative potential of nature-based values that influence the relationships between reported and intended pro-environmental behavior
(Peer reviewed, 2023)Protected area landscapes embody multiple values of nature that can create meaning in everyday life. Though the values ascribed to these environments theoretically inspire changes in human behavior, surprisingly few studies ... -
Airborne laser scanning reveals uniform responses of forest structure to moose (Alces alces) across the boreal forest biome
(Peer reviewed; Journal article, 2023)1. The moose Alces alces is the largest herbivore in the boreal forest biome, where it can have dramatic impacts on ecosystem structure and dynamics. Despite the importance of the boreal forest biome in global carbon ... -
The northernmost hyperspectral FLoX sensor dataset for monitoring of high-Arctic tundra vegetation phenology and Sun-Induced Fluorescence (SIF)
(Peer reviewed; Journal article, 2023)A hyperspectral field sensor (FloX) was installed in Adventdalen (Svalbard, Norway) in 2019 as part of the Svalbard Integrated Arctic Earth Observing System (SIOS) for monitoring vegetation phenology and Sun-Induced ... -

A long-established invasive species alters the functioning of benthic biofilms in lakes
(Peer reviewed; Journal article, 2023)1. Invasive species often transform environmental conditions, exclude native spe-cies and alter ecosystem functioning, including key ecosystem processes un-derpinning nutrient and energy cycles. However, such ... -
Do DOM quality and origin affect the uptake and accumulation of lipid-soluble contaminants in coastal filter feeders? An experimental simulation of teflubenzuron exposure to blue mussels
(Peer reviewed; Journal article, 2023)The increased export of terrestrial dissolved organic matter (terrDOM) to coastal marine ecosystems may affect local filter feeders and the local food web via the altered uptake of organic material and associated contaminants. ... -
Don't mind if I do: Arctic humpback whales respond to winter foraging opportunities before migration
(Peer reviewed; Journal article, 2023)Migration patterns are fundamentally linked to the spatio-temporal distributions of prey. How migrating animals canrespond to changes in their prey’s distribution and abundance remains largely unclear. During the ... -
Implementing code review in the scientific workflow: Insights from ecology and evolutionary biology
(Peer reviewed; Journal article, 2023)Code review increases reliability and improves reproducibility of research. As such, code review is an inevitable step in software development and is common in fields such as computer science. However, despite its importance, ... -
