The recovery of European freshwater biodiversity has come to a halt
(Peer reviewed; Journal article, 2023)wing to a long history of anthropogenic pressures, freshwater ecosystems are among the most vulnerable to biodiversity loss1 . Mitigation measures, including wastewater treatment and hydromorphological restoration, have ... -
Recovery of vegetation on former alpine roads: how long does it take?
(Peer reviewed; Journal article, 2023)Alpine areas worldwide are under heavy land-use pressure and degradation. Active restoration treatments can contribute to accelerating recovery of degraded areas. However, monitoring data are needed to understand the ... -
Recovery of young brown trout (Salmo trutta) in acidified streams: What are the critical values for acid-neutralizing capacity?
(Journal article; Peer reviewed, 2016)The recovery of young allopatric brown trout (Salmo trutta) grouped into YoY (age 0þ) and older parr (age 1þ) fish, was studied in acid-sensitive streams in a Norwegian watershed during a 24-year-period (1987e2010). ... -
Recreational anglers in Norway report widespread dislike of invasive pink salmon
(Peer reviewed; Journal article, 2023)Pink salmon have returned to Norwegian rivers at high abundance in recent odd-numbered years (2017, 2019, 2021, 2023), presenting potential threats to native biodiversity and ecosystem services, including major sport fishing ... -
Redefining the oceanic distribution of Atlantic salmon
(Peer reviewed; Journal article, 2021)Determining the mechanisms driving range-wide reductions in Atlantic salmon marine survival is hindered by an insufcient understanding of their oceanic ecology and distribution. We attached 204 pop-up satellite archival ... -
Redescription and taxonomic notes on Cyclops bohater Koźmiński, 1933 and Cyclops lacustris G.O. Sars, 1863 (Arthropoda, Crustacea), with an identification key to the Cyclops species of Fenno-Scandinavia
(Journal article; Peer reviewed, 2016)The studies of Cyclops O.F. Müller, 1776 have more than two centuries of tradition in Fenno- Scandinavia, yet, basic taxonomic questions remain unresolved and the limits of the distributional area are very poorly understood ... -
Refrigeration or anti-theft? Food-caching behavior of Wolverines (Gulo gulo) in Scandinavia
(Journal article, 2020)Food-caching animals can gain nutritional advantages by buffering seasonality in food availability, especially during times of scarcity. The wolverine (Gulo gulo) is a facultative predator that occupies environments of low ... -
Regional Diversity of Maritime Antarctic Soil Fungi and Predicted Responses of Guilds and Growth Forms to Climate Change
(Peer reviewed; Journal article, 2020)We report a metabarcoding study documenting the fungal taxa in 29 barren fellfield soils sampled from along a 1,650 km transect encompassing almost the entire maritime Antarctic (60–72°S) and the environmental factors ... -
Reindeer behavioural ecology and use of pastures in pastoral livelihoods
(Chapter, 2022)Reindeer pastoralists have, for centuries, followed free-roaming animals throughout the Eurasian Arctic. The closing of national borders about a century ago forced the reindeer pastoralists to adapt to new conditions. ... -
Relating national levels of crop damage to the abundance of large grazing birds: Implications for management
(Journal article, 2020)1. Populations of large grazing birds have increased in Europe during the past five decades, raising conflicts between conservation and farming interests. Managing these conflicts requires knowledge about the currently ... -
Relationship between marine growth and sea survival of two anadromous salmonid fish species
(Journal article; Peer reviewed, 2017)This study found empirical evidence supporting the “growth–survival” paradigm in the marine phase of Arctic char (Salvelinus alpinus) and brown trout (Salmo trutta). The paradigm postulates that larger or faster-growing ... -
Relationships between isotopic ratios, body condition and breeding success in a High Arctic seabird community
(Peer reviewed; Journal article, 2019)Predators such as seabirds are often used as bio-indicators of the marine environment. This is based on the assumption that changes in seabird populations are driven by changes in their prey. We tested this assumption in ... -
Relic DNA confounds the results of DNA-based study on microeukaryotic succession in aquatic biofilms
(Peer reviewed; Journal article, 2023)High-throughput sequencing has revolutionized the DNA sequence-based study of microbial community and diversity on an unprecedented scale. Relic DNA is widespread in the natural aquatic environment; however, the extent to ... -
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 ... -
Reproduction as a bottleneck to treeline advance across the circumarctic forest tundra ecotone
(Journal article; Peer reviewed, 2018)The fundamental niche of many species is shifting with climate change, especially in sub-arctic ecosystems with pronounced recent warming. Ongoing warming in sub-arctic regions should lessen environmental constraints on ... -
Reproductive success in the European shag is linked to annual variation in diet and foraging trip metrics
(Journal article, 2019)Seabird populations have declined worldwide, and several of the potential threats are of anthropogenic origin. To understand how changes in seabird populations relate to environmental conditions it is important to know the ... -
Research challenges for cultural ecosystem services and public health in (peri-)urban environments
(Journal article; Peer reviewed, 2018)Urbanization is a global trend, and consequently the quality of urban environments is increasingly important for human health and wellbeing. Urban life-style is typically associated with low physical activity and sometimes ... -
Resilience of small-scale societies: a view from drylands
(Journal article; Peer reviewed, 2016)To gain insights on long-term social-ecological resilience, we examined adaptive responses of small-scale societies to dryland-related hazards in different regions and chronological periods, spanning from the mid-Holocene ... -
Resistance of a sub-arctic bird community to severe forest damage caused by geometrid moth outbreaks
(Journal article; Peer reviewed, 2015)Outbreaks by geometrid moths periodically cause mass mortality of trees and state changes in understorey vegetation in sub-arctic mountain birch forest in northern Scandinavia. In order to assess the short-term impacts of ... -
Resolving environmental effects of wind energy
(Peer reviewed; Journal article, 2018)Concerns for potential wildlife impacts resulting from land-based and offshore wind energy have created challenges for wind project development. Research is not always adequately supported, results are neither always readily ...
