Defining ecological buffer mechanisms should consider diverse approaches
(Peer reviewed; Journal article, 2023)In their response letter, Gascoigne et al. propose a relevant approach to characterizing ecological buffer mechanisms, akin to the study of buffer mechanisms in chemistry [1]. Their chemistry-inspired viewpoint enables ... -
Degenerative Encephalopathy in Nova Scotia Duck Tolling Retrievers Presenting with a Rapid Eye Movement Sleep Behavior Disorder
(Peer reviewed; Journal article, 2016)Background:Neurodegenerative diseases are a heterogeneous group of disorders characterized by loss of neurons and arecommonly associated with a genetic mutation.Hypothesis/Objectives:To characterize the clinical and ... -
Delayed egg‐laying and shortened incubation duration of Arctic‐breeding shorebirds coincide with climate cooling
(Peer reviewed; Journal article, 2018)Biological impacts of climate change are exemplified by shifts in phenology. As the timing of breeding advances, the within- season relationships between timing of breed-ing and reproductive ... -
Delineating participation in conservation governance: Insights from the Sierra de Guadarrama National Park (Spain)
(Peer reviewed; Journal article, 2020)The active participation of local stakeholders in governing protected areas is increasingly recognized in biodiversity conservation. While progress has been made in countries to facilitate inclusivity in conservation ... -
Delineation of the forest-tundra ecotone using texture-based classification of satellite imagery
(Peer reviewed; Journal article, 2020)The transition zone between the boreal forest and Arctic tundra, the forest-tundra ecotone (FTE), is an area of high ecological and climatological significance. Despite its importance, a globally consistent high spatial ... -
Demersal fish assemblages in the boreo-Arctic shelf waters around Svalbard during the warm period 2007–2014
(Journal article; Peer reviewed, 2017) -
Demographic drivers of collapse in an island population of Tree Swallows
(Journal article; Peer reviewed, 2018)Diagnosing causes of population declines requires an understanding of the contributions of demographic vital rates to interannual variability and long-term changes in population size. At Kent Island, New Brunswick, Canada, ... -
Demographic measures of an individual's "pace of life": fecundity rate, lifespan, generation time, or a composite variable?
(Journal article; Peer reviewed, 2018)Comparative analyses have demonstrated the existence of a ^pace-of-life^ (POL) continuum of life-history strategies, from fastreproducing short-lived species to slow-reproducing long-lived species. This idea has been ... -
Demonstrating the practical impact of studies on biotic interactions and adaptation of a threatened unionoid mussel (Margaritifera margaritifera) to its host fish (Salmo trutta)
(Peer reviewed; Journal article, 2020)conservation evaluation, fish, invertebrates, stream -
Density independent use of shallow riverine areas in juvenile Atlantic salmon
(Journal article; Peer reviewed, 2018)Habitat use of aquatic organisms is essential to evaluate effects of many environmental challenges like effects of hydro-power regulation, where stranding may occur under hydropeaking (rapid dewatering of shallow river ... -
Density of Wild Prey Modulates Lynx Kill Rates on Free-Ranging Domestic Sheep
(Peer reviewed; Journal article, 2013)Understanding the factors shaping the dynamics of carnivore–livestock conflicts is vital to facilitate large carnivore conservation in multi-use landscapes. We investigated how the density of their main wild prey, roe deer ... -
Density-dependent selection and the maintenance of colour polymorphism in barn owls
(Peer reviewed; Journal article, 2022)The capacity of natural selection to generate adaptive changes is (according to the fundamental theorem of natural selection) proportional to the additive genetic variance in fitness. In spite of its importance for development ... -
Designing a surveillance program for early detection of alien plants and insects in Norway
(Peer reviewed; Journal article, 2022)Naturalized species of alien plants and animals comprise < 3% of biodiversity recorded in Norway but have had major impacts on natural ecosystems through displacement of native species. Encroachment of alien species has ... -
Determinants of grassland primary productionin seasonally-dry silvopastoral systems in Central America
(Peer reviewed; Journal article, 2014)Grassland primary productivity is the function that underpins the majority of the fodder production in cattle-rearing silvopastoral farms. Hence, understanding the factors that determine grassland productivity is ... -
Development and testing of attachment methods for pop-up satellite archival transmitters in European eel
(Peer reviewed, 2013)Background: Four methods for attaching pop-up satellite transmitters to European eel were tested in the laboratory by recording long-term tag retention, growth and survival; short-term behavioral responses; and physical ... -
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 ... -
Development of new metrics to assess and quantify climatic drivers of Extreme event driven Arctic browning
(Journal article, 2020)Rapid climate change in Arctic regions is resulting in more frequent extreme climatic events. These can cause large-scale vegetation damage, and are therefore among key drivers of declines in biomass and productivity (or ... -
Diet of the European badgers (Meles meles) in urban and rural areas of Norway
(Peer reviewed; Journal article, 2019)The constant expansion of urban habitats provides new opportunities for various wildlife species, referred to as urban exploiters or adapters that allow them to thrive in new conditions. The Eurasian badger (Meles meles) ... -
