Pukkellaks invaderte norske elver i 2017
(Journal article, 2018)I 2017 ble elver langs hele norskekysten invadert av pukkelaks. Dette resulterte i en rekke oppslag i media og omfattende kommunikasjon og diskusjon på internett. I denne artikkelen gir vi en kort presentasjon om historikken ... -
Knock-on effects of environmental influences during embryonic development of ecothermic vertebrates
(Peer reviewed; Journal article, 2022)Environmental factors influencing parents or offspring during embryogenesis can have knock-on effects at later life stages of the offspring. These effects may prepare the progeny for conditions that they may encounter as ... -
Multivariate Analysis of Geological Data for Regional Studies of Geodiversity
(Peer reviewed; Journal article, 2022)In Norway, a landscape map exists which gives the opportunity to collect data in landscape units for further analysis. This study covers parts of Norway and Sweden, so the landscape map was extended into Sweden to form a ... -
Climate influence on plant–pollinator interactions in the keystone species Vaccinium myrtillus
(Peer reviewed; Journal article, 2022)Climate change is altering the world's ecosystems through direct effects of climate warming and precipitation changes but also indirectly through changes in biotic interactions. For instance, climate-driven changes in plant ... -
The evidence synthesis and meta‑analysis in R conference (ESMARConf): levelling the playing field of conference accessibility and equitability
(Peer reviewed; Journal article, 2022)Rigorous evidence is vital in all disciplines to ensure efficient, appropriate, and fit-for-purpose decision-making with minimised risk of unintended harm. To date, however, disciplines have been slow to share evidence ... -
Automatic flower detection and phenology monitoring using time-lapse cameras and deep learning
(Peer reviewed; Journal article, 2022)The advancement of spring is a widespread biological response to climate change observed across taxa and biomes. However, the species level responses to warming are complex and the underlying mechanisms are difficult to ... -
A review of reindeer (Rangifer tarandus tarandus) disturbance research in Northern Europe: towards a social-ecological framework?
(Peer reviewed; Journal article, 2022)Disturbance of wild reindeer from human activity is a key challenge for wildlife management. We reviewed recent literature on reindeer disturbance in Northern Europe and discuss a major lacuna in this field of research, ... -
Forest owners' perspectives on forest protection in Norway
(Peer reviewed; Journal article, 2022)Forest protection in nature reserves in Norway relies on the voluntary participation of forest owners. While the national forest protection program has been a success since its start in early 1990s, by 2020 the national ... -
Identifying high‑risk areas for introduction of new alien species: the case of the invasive round goby, a door‑knocker for Norway
(Peer reviewed; Journal article, 2022)Identifying new areas of colonisation by alien species is important for early detection and management. Door-knocker species pose problems for traditional predictive models because of lacking presence–absence data, but ... -
Citationchaser: A tool for transparent and efficient forward and backward citation chasing in systematic searching
(Peer reviewed; Journal article, 2022)Systematic searching aims to find all possibly relevant research from multiple sources, the basis for an unbiased and comprehensive evidence base. Along with bibliographic databases, systematic reviewers use a variety of ... -
Egg incubation temperature influences the population-specific outmigration rate of juvenile brown trout Salmo trutta
(Peer reviewed; Journal article, 2022)The present experiment tested if temperature during embryogenesis and parental heritage affected the migratory behaviour of young brown trout Salmo trutta. Two parental forms were used, a freshwater resident form and an ... -
Natural and anthropogenic drivers of escaped farmed salmon occurrence and introgression into wild Norwegian Atlantic salmon populations
(Peer reviewed; Journal article, 2022)Marine aquaculture of Atlantic salmon (Salmo salar) is a relatively new industry where breeding programs have led to rapid genetic change in the captive populations that were built up alongside conspecific wild individuals. ... -
Predicting Foraging Habitat of European Shags - A Multi-Year and Multi-Colony Tracking Approach to Identify Important Areas for Marine Conservation
(Peer reviewed; Journal article, 2022)Human activity in the coastal zone is increasing worldwide, putting a number of seabird species under pressure. Norway is no exception to this development, and with > 35% of the NE Atlantic population of the currently ... -
Inclusive conservation and the Post-2020 Global Biodiversity Framework: Tensions and prospects
(Peer reviewed; Journal article, 2022)The draft Post-2020 Global Biodiversity Framework commits to achievement of equity and justice outcomes and represents a ‘‘relational turn’’ in how we understand inclusive conservation. Although ‘‘inclusivity’’ is drawn ... -
Viewshed-based modelling of visual exposure to urban greenery – An efficient GIS tool for practical planning applications
(Peer reviewed; Journal article, 2022)Quantifying green visual exposure is necessary to assess aesthetic, social and health benefits from urban greenery. Viewshed analysis has been successfully used to model and map green visual exposure from human perspective ... -
Long-term tracking of an Arctic-breeding seabird indicates high fidelity to pelagic wintering areas
(Peer reviewed; Journal article, 2021)Site fidelity is driven by predictable resource distributions in time and space. However, intrinsic factors related to an individual’s physiology and life-history traits can contribute to consistent foraging behaviour and ... -
Comparing the implicit valuation of ecosystem services from nature-based solutions in performance-based green area indicators across three European cities
(Peer reviewed; Journal article, 2021)Performance-based green area indicators are increasingly used as policy instruments to promote nature-based solutions in urban property development. We explore the differences and parallels of three green area indicators: ... -
New tools to evaluate plastic ingestion by northern fulmars applied to North Sea monitoring data 2002–2018
(Peer reviewed; Journal article, 2021)Monitoring plastic in stomachs of beached northern fulmars for OSPAR’s Ecological Quality Objectives (EcoQOs) has been incorporated into the European Marine Strategy Framework Directive (MSFD). This paper aims to provide ... -
Utilizing LiDAR data to map tree canopy for urban ecosystem extent and condition accounts in Oslo
(Peer reviewed; Journal article, 2021)LiDAR-based segmentation of urban tree canopies and their physical properties (canopy height, canopy diameter, 3D surface and volume) is a replicable, complementary and useful information source for urban ecosystem condition ... -
Growth-enhanced salmon modify stream ecosystem functioning
(Peer reviewed, 2021)Use of fast-growing domesticated and/or genetically modified strains of fish isbecoming increasingly common in aquaculture, increasing the likelihood of deliberateor accidental introductions into the wild. To date, their ...
