Comparing land use impacts using ecosystem quality, biogenic carbon emissions, and restoration costs in a case study of hydropower plants in Norway
(Journal article; Peer reviewed, 2017)Purpose Habitat destruction is today the most severe threat to global biodiversity. Despite decades of efforts, there is still no proper methodology on how to assess all aspects of impacts on biodiversity from land use and ... -
Competition between apex predators? Brown bears decrease wolf kill rate on two continents
(Journal article; Peer reviewed, 2017)Trophic interactions are a fundamental topic in ecology, but we know little about how competition between apex predators affects predation, the mechanism driving top-down forcing in ecosystems.We used long-term datasets ... -
Contrasting structural complexity diferentiate hunting strategy in an ambush apex predator
(Peer reviewed; Journal article, 2021)Structural complexity is known to influence prey behaviour, mortality and population structure, but the effects on predators have received less attention. We tested whether contrasting structural complexity in two newly ... -
Development of an environmental DNA assay and field validation for the detection of invasive pink salmon Oncorhynchus gorbuscha
(Peer reviewed; Journal article, 2021)1. Pink salmon Oncorhynchus gorbuscha was introduced from its native range in the Pacific to Northwest Russia several times since the 1950s. While this species has been regularly observed in rivers in northern Norway since ... -
Do foraging ecology and contaminants interactively predict parenting hormone levels in common eider?
(Peer reviewed; Journal article, 2023)Global climate change is causing abiotic shifts such as higher air and ocean temperatures, and disappearing sea ice in Arctic ecosystems. These changes influence Arctic-breeding seabird foraging ecology by altering prey ... -
Effect of human–elephant conflict on local attitudes toward the conservation of wild Asian elephants in Myanmar
(Peer reviewed; Journal article, 2022)The study of attitudes toward wild elephants and human–elephant conflict (HEC) is vital to understanding what attitudes are held by local people and how to incorporate them into wild elephant conservation. This study ... -
Elevationally biased avian predation as a contributor to the spatial distribution of geometrid moth outbreaks in sub-arctic mountain birch forest
(Journal article; Peer reviewed, 2017)1. Population dynamics and interactions that vary over a species’ range are of particular importance in the context of latitudinal clines in biological diversity.Winter moth (Operophtera brumata) and autumnal moth (Epirrita ... -
Forests dynamics in the montane–alpine boundary: a comparative study using satellite imagery and climate data
(Journal article; Peer reviewed, 2017)Over the past decades, the altitudinal and latitudinal advance of forest lines has increased due to global warming and the abandonment of less productive areas previously subject to agricultural activities. The intensity ... -
Future forest distribution on Finnmarksvidda, North Norway
(Journal article; Peer reviewed, 2017)Finnmarksvidda is Norway’s largest mountain plateau, located in the Arctic/alpineboreal transition area. The area is also a central winter grazing area for the reindeer herds of the indigenous Sámi people. This study ... -
Global responses to the COVID-19 pandemic by recreational anglers: considerations for developing more resilient and sustainable fisheries
(Peer reviewed; Journal article, 2023)The global COVID-19 pandemic resulted in many jurisdictions implementing orders restricting the movements of people to inhibit virus transmission, with recreational angling often either not permitted or access to fsheries ... -
A holistic view of Holistic Management: What do farm-scale, carbon, and social studies tell us?
(Peer reviewed; Journal article, 2022)Holistic Management (HM) is claimed to increase production of plants and animals while also increasing soil organic carbon under all conditions in all habitats. Peer-review literature does not support these claims, but ... -
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 ... -
Peatland core domain sets: building consensus on what should be measured in research and monitoring
(Peer reviewed; Journal article, 2022)It is often difficult to compile and synthesise evidence across multiple studies to inform policy and practice because different outcomes have been measured in different ways or datasets and models have not been fully or ... -
Policy Mixes: Aligning instruments for biodiversity conservation and ecosystem service provision
(Journal article; Peer reviewed, 2017)“To explain the world of interactions and outcomes occurring at multiple levels, we also have to be willing to deal with complexity instead of rejecting it.” (E. Ostrom 2009 Nobel Prize Lecture) This special issue was ... -
Rapid evolution of genetic and phenotypic divergence in Atlantic salmon following the colonisation of two new branches of a watercourse
(Journal article; Peer reviewed, 2017)Background: Selection acts strongly on individuals that colonise a habitat and have phenotypic traits that deviate from the local optima. Our objective was to investigate the evolutionary rates in Atlantic salmon (Salmo ... -
State and transition model approach in native forests of Southern Patagonia (Argentina): linking ecosystem services, thresholds and resilience
(Journal article; Peer reviewed, 2017)The sustainable use of ñire forests requires knowledge of its dynamics and management to maintain long-term main forest ecosystem services. The aim of this work was to develop a structural–functional state and transition ... -
Transitions of social-ecological subsistence systems in the Arctic
(Journal article; Peer reviewed, 2017)Transitions of social-ecological systems (SES) expose governance systems to new challenges. This is particularly so in the Arctic where resource systems are increasingly subjected to global warming, industrial development ... -
What is the effect of giving the grazers access to additional nutrient sources on biodiversity in semi-natural pastures? A systematic review protocol
(Peer reviewed; Journal article, 2021)Sensors, such as accelerometers, in tracking devices allow for detailed bio-logging to understand animal behaviour, even in remote places where direct observation is difcult. To study breeding in birds remotely, one needs ...
